Maybe you have seen the youtube video but As President Barack Obama delivered the commencement speech at a Michigan high school’s graduation ceremony, there was one particular student who was visibly not paying attention.  One student in the Kalamazoo Central student choir sitting behind the president and is yawning numerous times as Obama offers advice on how to succeed in life. Later, the boy’s eyes droop and his head rolls forward and it appears he has nodded off only to be awakened by the cheers and applause for the president.  Obama delivered the school’s commencement because it won the Race to the Top Commencement Challenge competition. As a mom, I was only visioning what I would say and do if that was my son.
