Interesting situation

Some of the kids were thrilled at first - and then the realization set in that is was a political operation that would sideline "their day".

Having been to a few graduations the ticket issue is huge.

Also most graduation speeches I've listened to (from both sides) had a few political zingers but still the majority of the speech was on "You young adults go forward..." stuff.
