President Obama's Message To 2020 Graduates

Here are the former President's remarks, broadcast on last night's "Graduate Together" program, proving himself once again as the polar opposite of the trash currently occupying the Oval Office:



His message to graduating Historically Black Colleges and Universities seniors was even more pointed:



Just to remind ourselves that, not so long ago, we had a competent leader who was admired and respected here and around the world.  Sic transit gloria, America.

Tonight's Programming Reminder!

A reminder for your high school class of 2020 and everyone in general:

As coronavirus has prompted the cancellation of high school graduation ceremonies across the country, The Entertainment Industry Foundation, The LeBron James Family Foundation, XQ Institute, and a broad coalition of partners are coming together to pay tribute to millions of high school seniors, their extraordinary teachers, and their families, as rally everyone around a message of hope and unity.

Graduate Together: America Honors the Class of 2020 will air simultaneously across ABC, CBS, FOX, and NBC, as well as a broad alliance of social media and streaming platforms. The one-hour primetime special airs on Saturday, May 16, and will honor the more than 3 million high school seniors across the country. 

President Barack Obama will deliver a commencement address to the virtual class of 2020. The one-hour event will also feature dozens of artists, educators and other notables. The "Graduate Together" program will air at 8:00 PM Eastern and Pacific time, 7:00 PM Central and Mountain time.  Congratulations to all the graduating seniors!

Prior to that, starting at 7:00 PM Eastern, CNN will host a special, "Class of 2020: In This Together," which will feature President Bill Clinton as well as guests from the entertainment industry, etc.

I guess nobody invited the puerile, nasty, dumb, racist, conceited kid with the fake tan to either celebration.  Sad!
