High-School Student sleeps during Obama's Graduation Speech - Polidicks

[url]http://buzz.yahoo.com/buzzlog/93742?fp=1[/url] [quote]He's one of the most charismatic politicians in the world, capable of giving speeches that inspire millions of voters. But there is at least one young man who'd rather take a nap than listen to President Obama wax poetic. Earlier this week, President Obama gave a speech at Kalamazoo Central high school in Michigan. The school had won a contest that brought the president to its town to speak at the graduation ceremony. But while Mr. Obama spoke about the value of hard work and the wonderful education each of the graduating students had earned, a young choir member seated two rows behind the president yawned repeatedly and eventually even nodded off. The juxtaposition of the president's lofty words mixed with the student's need for sweet, sweet sleep was caught on video. The comedic clip has since made its way around the Web and the exhausted student has garnered quite a fanbase on Facebook. An unofficial group entitled "the guy sleeping behind obama at kalamazoo graduation" has nearly 4,000 members, and blogs across the Web have picked up on the snoozer's sudden fame. Searches on "sleeping student" and "obama sleeping graduation" both soared. Below, a clip of the sleepy student. Please, try not to wake him.[/quote] Video is in the link. Obama cannot do anything but write speeches

Who cares? As far as I'm concerned, he has every right to sleep during a speech. I fell asleep while watching Obama's inauguration speech on TV, and I'M not on the news, am I?

Isn't that essentially the only thing a president has to do?

Let me address to you how important this is:

[editline]10:36PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Foda;22496810]you would think that at your graduation where the president of the united states was speaking at, that you would not fall asleep.[/QUOTE] Not if the president in question was doing something to aid the country.

Oh NO! Scandalous!

[QUOTE=Foda;22496810]you would think that at your graduation where the president of the united states was speaking at, that you would not fall asleep.[/QUOTE] I wouldn't because I'd be throwing anything I could get my hands on at him.

not everyone likes him. I'm sure whoever the student was only pretended to do it for funnsies.

I would fall asleep because I get like 3-4 hours of sleep before school anyway.

[QUOTE=DANKA;22496952]HOLY SHIT GUYS BREAKING NEWS RIGHT Watch as people peg this kid as Racist, or a traitor to the U.S[/QUOTE] More like the exact opposite.

How dare he!

[QUOTE=PvtCupcakes;22496943]To clog the bullshit spewing out of his mouth.[/QUOTE] You wouldn't do shit.

This is like the time when a kid standing behind Bush was dosing off during a speech. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgQt0HTHa-E[/media] ___ These kinds of articles in my opinion are on the same level as celebrity tabloids. Not very useful, and only good for passing the time.

Isn't really news. Big woop.

oh no! How dare he be tired! Sleeping is illegal :colbert:

[QUOTE=Panda X;22497072]You wouldn't do shit.[/QUOTE] Even if he did, it would still be a stupid choice to be charged with crimes. Just stick to criticizing Obama.

Coming up next, a cat learns to [b]chase[/b] a [b]string[/b].

[QUOTE=Panda X;22497072]You wouldn't do shit.[/QUOTE] I think I would. But it's more likely I'd just yell at him. I'd rather not get taken to Gitmo and waterboarded.

[QUOTE=MasterChef;22497182]Wow. People really believe this?[/QUOTE] your saying a person that got a bit more then half a country to vote for him is not charismatic, this thread is oozing with intellectual thought process [editline]06:52PM[/editline] [QUOTE=PvtCupcakes;22497208]Ask me anything.

He's not charismatic. Why? Most of his voters voted two or three times. I've done the research.
