How I Feel About the Education Speech

So...on September 8, 2009, Obama gave his oh-so-controversial [kidding] speech to the students of America. What I think is so funny is the fact that parents across the golden Triangle and the nation were writing letters to the schools and taking their children out of school because they did not want their kids listnening to his speech. I, personally, think that his speech was very thought out and had no kind of negative whatever. His speech was mainly talking about how students should stay in school to become whatever they want to be in life, except for a RAPPER, PRO ATHLETE OR ANYTHING IN THE ENTERTAINMENT BUSINESS [so funny!]. How do I feel about this speech? I don't think it deserved all of the publicity it received because #1, it was only 15 minutes long, #2, it wasn't controversial at all, and #3, it was at times rather boring. But I feel that students in America or anywhere else should have seen or listened to what he had to say. It inspired me to really stay focused and not worry about not getting into college. Since Obama will still be in office when it is time for me to actually go to college, I think anything will be possible for me to achieve because with Obama...."Yes I Can". [ok...maybe that wasn't funny to you but it was to me!]

Thanks for reading! Hope you enjoyed!
