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

[QUOTE=Strongbad;22497248]He's not charismatic. Why? Most of his voters voted two or three times. I've done the research.[/QUOTE] my research tells me five

I think he either did it as a joke or he must have been genuinely too tired. I'm sure if it was just the case that he was tired he had his reasons.

[QUOTE=Termy58;22497212]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 [/QUOTE] Obama had way too much hype from the beginning. And it based on almost nothing, but more hype. He's like Paris Hilton, famous for being famous. But he isn't that bad, he is a politician, so he's made it somewhere. Point is, he didn't need to be charismatic. Obviously, since he is not, in any way. He's no Ronald Reagan.

I haven't even thought about this.

[QUOTE=Strongbad;22497248]He's not charismatic. Why? Most of his voters voted two or three times. I've done the research.[/QUOTE] Hahaha yeah I'm sure you have. Care to say where you've done this "research"? [editline]03:58PM[/editline] [QUOTE=MasterChef;22497307] He's no Ronald Reagan.[/QUOTE] Assuming you, like most Facepunchers, are young, I am guessing you were not alive when Reagan was president, so tell me exactly what it is that Reagan did that made him such a good president. And I mean your own opinions, not your parents, and not anything you find searching on the internet. You realize this isn't really about Obama, it's about the fact that the guy didn't have enough respect to stay awake through a speech from the god damn [I]president of the united states. [/I]I would love to talk to any president whether I hated him or not, and I'd sure as hell would at least offer him the respect if a president came to my town to talk to my Class at graduation.

Slow day in the news room.

Let's see.. [url=http://www.nypost.com/p/news/opinion/opedcolumnists/item_26HO9BUClYyCixabvTfvKK;jsessionid=A6134ACC4F55251D90269245FD53DA06/]News sources?[/url] People giving stories of how they were unable to vote because someone had already voted in their name for Obama?

[QUOTE=PvtCupcakes;22496835]I wouldn't because I'd be throwing anything I could get my hands on at him.[/QUOTE] No, you wouldn't assault the president on camera.

Not only do I see common sense and great ideals in Reagan's speeches, his very true [i]charisma[/i] shone through as well. I saw that what he was saying is what he felt in his heart, and it captured my attention, sure as shit. In all honesty, I feel like I'm being drug through a speech when I listen to Obama. He gives, unnecessary pauses, that, after a while, get very, very, annoying. I can easily recall when I first heard someone say he was a good speaker. I was utterly surprised.

Reagan gave good speeches because they were written by his corporate overlords.

[QUOTE=Zeke129;22497430]No, you wouldn't assault the president on camera.[/QUOTE] Psh! He'd do it to clog the liberal agenda bullshit spewing out of the evil figurehead's mouth.

I honestly don't think Obama is that good of a speaker, he talks too slowly and awkwardly fumbles with his words a lot.

What makes your opinion any more valid than someone else's opinion that states the opposite in favour of Obama?

guys red is a better colour than blue

What makes that a reputable source and what about that should convince me that Obama some how won because of a rigged election?

What the fuck? Why does anyone care? If i fell asleep during class, it wouldn't reach the news. And neither should this.

Sugar in the coffee is better than without [editline]11:29PM[/editline] I just want to say that it happened and whatever it may mean there is not much to say about it

Pahahahahaha this is great.

[QUOTE=dvondrake;22498002]It's just a matter of respect. It doesn't matter if you like the guy or not, he's the president. And it should be an honor to have him at your graduation. Sure, you can fall asleep if you want to, but if you're sitting behind him and you KNOW you'll be on TV, at least try not to nod off. It's the fact that he's up there with him being recorded that makes this disrespectful. If these kids aren't grateful of the president coming to their graduation, he should have come to mine. I wouldn't doze off.[/QUOTE] From the way you talk about him, you would be too busy trying to hide your boner every time he talks.

I wouldn't blame him, because graduating was very boring, but its the president dude...

[QUOTE=Termy58;22497643] thanks stupid idiot[/QUOTE] That's how you act in a political argument? Seriously? He gave an honest opinion, and you have absolutely nothing better to say.

I doubt Obama cares. Why the fuck should we?

Amazing and newsworthy, yet everyone decides to google for this dude and stalk him

[QUOTE=PvtCupcakes;22496835]I wouldn't because I'd be throwing anything I could get my hands on at him.[/QUOTE] You'd soon have plenty bullets on hand to throw at him, courtesy of the Secret Service.

Where about in the video is the sleeping person anyways?

[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] Eh, its just some random person who has an artificial right that some people made up. If you really tear that apart it is nothing special at all, and if he doesn't care so much about "famous" people, or thinks that his country is so great that simply being the president of it makes you super important and great to see in person, then by all means, let him sleep.

Yes it does Johnnsen, holy shit.

He probably was up late partying.
