Hopefully he arrives just in time to get swept out to the gulf with the rest of the debris.

I don't think Booker T. Washington and Obama were on the same page:

"There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs. There is a certain class of race-problem solvers who don't want the patient to get well."
--Booker T. Washington, 1911

I thought Booker T. Washington was dead.

Besides, I doubt that he'd have given a commencement speech for obama.

Washington was, as I recall from studying US History, a self-reliant individual who had no interest in fanning the flames of racism.

Maybe The One could take time out from promoting himself to lower the Missippi river around Memphis.

Booker T. Washington is the city’s oldest high school created for black students during segregation.

Just curious--is it still segregated?

I recall vividly when Bush II visited some Eastern High School, at the very last minute, the teacher in charge of the band at one of the schools with drew their participation, claiming that she did not want the students to show preference.

In other words, these students practiced for days, weeks in anticipation of playing for the president, and in the end this liberal twit, prohibited them from playing.

I don’t expect the same thing to happen to Barry Obama.This guy is in campaign mode. He will be stopped by his own Carter moment.

The world leaders know, that he is gutless and will vacillate esp over something like China attacking Taiwan or someone attacking Israel.

“BTW outpaced state goals in Algebra 1 by 27 percentage points last year”

...big deal. In my daughters public HS the graduation rate is 99.8% and 25% of seniors have a 3.7+ GPA. Over 85% have already been accepted into college. It’s all about the parents.

All city schools do is lower the bar until they get the numbers they want. Black kids don’t have a chance from the start. No Dad, entitlements, revisionist history and no understanding of economics doom them. It’s working just the way it was intended.

Bridgeport High School was one of the losers. It is a very small school in Eastern Washington. The graduating class is less than 30, and many of them are here illegally.

A.) Wouldn’t the date he delivers the commencement address coincide with the graduation date?

B.) Has BO not been watching the news? Does he not know the place is underwater?

And how very convenient there happens to be a little problem with flooding in the area. He can campaign - oops, I mean console all the good people.

Obvious, much.

A charter school with 100% of students going on to college, High Tech High is too successful. It's also in Republican San Diego.

Booker T. Washington would be the racist's choice so it's a given with this president. He'll work in the floods too. Gag.

Booker T. shows how much Obama loves diversity. If the situation were reversed, Bush would have been called racist.

Big mistake-the Mississippi River is cresting at 48 feet today in Memphis. It’s going to be hard for Dear Leader and the MSM to ignore the disaster when they have to drive (row?) through it.

If Obummer knew a thing about Booker T. Washington
(the man), he might have chosen a school whose name
aligned more with his core beliefs.

If only ideals and values could transfer by proximity.

He probably scrubbed CAPA in Pittsburgh after one of their teachers got busted robbing banks, stealing school district computers, and breaking in to her neighbors’ homes, all to support a heroin habit.

Whew. I’m glad he didn’t choose Washington State.
