What a beautiful message President Obama gave to school children today. In his second annual back-to-school speech, President Obama urged students to dream big, take responsibility and embrace diversity.
Interesting there wasn't a big fight over whether he had the right to talk to our children. That was so embarrassing last year..
"If you take away one thing from my speech, I want you to take away the notion that life is precious, and part of what makes it so wonderful is its diversity, that all of us are different," Obama said. "And we shouldn't be embarrassed by the things that make us different. We should be proud of them." (President Barack Obama to Detroit school children)
