“To sleep: perchance to dream…” Shakespeare
When you’ve worked tirelessly to win President Obama’s “Race to the Top” video competition there might be some excuse to gently nod off to sleep during your class of 2010 commencement speech.
But what if that commencement speech is being given by your President?
Yes, you’ve guessed it. Some unfortunate student was filmed falling asleep as his classmates listened to the rousing rhetoric of the President.
As the President regaled the class of 2010 at the Kalamazoo Central High School with the call to action, “Your country needs you,” he slept.
A priceless introduction to highbrow political speech making for the young man.
Bet he is regretting going out for a few drinks the night before now!
Now That was really funny. Too bad for the president, or for the poor kid that had to listen to him.
Great public speaking site. A lot of useful information here. I’m sending it to some friends!
