President Obama as our commencement speaker?

HEY CLASS OF 2010!! President Obama has issued a challenge to high school seniors, and the prize is that he will be the winning school's commencement speaker. Are you guys interested in this?

There's an application with essays . .. but I think it needs to be done by a senior, or by a group of seniors.

  7. im interested! But I would rather write an essay with a few people than by self. Or at least brain storm with more people. Also, the video part is right up Brian's alley, we should ask him if he's interested
