Barack and Michelle Obama Address the Class of 2020: Do Not Despair — 'You All Are Exactly What We Need'
“First,” he told graduates, “do what you think is right, not just what’s convenient or what’s expected or what’s easy.”
He later continued: “I’ll admit that it’s a little unfair to lay such a heavy burden on you. I wish that my generation had done more to solve some of our country’s big problems, so you didn’t have to. But the good news is that I know you’re up to the challenge. You are the best-educated generation in history.”
“Life will always be uncertain,” she said. “It is a lesson that most of us get the chance to learn over the course of years and years — even decades — but one that you’re learning right now.”“In an uncertain world,” however, “time-tested values like honesty and integrity, empathy and compassion: That’s the only real currency in life,” the former First Lady said. “Treating people right will never, ever fail you.
“Finally, even if it all seems broken, have faith in our democracy,” he said. “Participate — and vote.”
