Bill Clinton speaks at Harvard's 2007 Class Day (2/3)

[ColDwight]

they need to change the term for presidents so bill clinton can get reelected!!!!! LOOK AT THE CROP THE REPUBLICANS HAVE, WERE IN BIG TROUBLE!!!

[opsasa]

and what about 10 000 killed Serbs civilians in 1999?? Those where your bombs Bill!

[dunnobutwayne]

@opsasa

LOL 10000 civilians wtf dude^^ get your numbers right they were some collateral damage but the bombings had to be done to stop milosevicz

[opsasa]

@dunnobutwayne

stop him from what? Anything what needs to be stopped is american politic of destruction in whole *uckin' world....

But go on Billy, tell your sweet stories about fairness... keep them blind... they are paying you for that.

[darkwarriorkane]

@opsasa So we just let the genecide that was in fact happening just go on? I'm trying to see this from your side but I think that was something we should have stopped.

[opsasa]

@darkwarriorkane Before your bombs, not even one civilian in Kosovo was killed by Serbs. Bill found some cheap excuses to start bombing. You should try to find German sources about that period, or, for example, information from OSCE mission in Kosovo. They don't think like you, be cause they know some other facts. Try to find German movie "Es begann mit einer Lüge = It started with a lie". Search for the truth, cause things aren't always black and white as you think.

[darkwarriorkane]

@opsasa Clinton didn't start shit NATO did we were asked by them to back them up so if anyone found an excuse it was them. Secondly the conflict began in mid 81 between kosovo and Yugoslavia when it became clear Slobodan Milošević was going to kill every single serb in 86 the un stepped in and put political sanctions on slobodan it was a decade later that the war began anew and NATO stepped in USA didn't get involved until 97 when asked. Facts don't have a side they are black and white

[wjwildcat]

he wishes that we shouldnot lose humanity inspite of the age of violenceand uncertainty

[wjwildcat]

It's ironic that even though genetic factors such as height and skin color is rooted in 1/10 of 1% of our human genome, it makes a big difference because that's what people really fight for their entire life but Bill Clinton tries to appease the audience by downplaying it's significance.

[crazysoccerman14]

I'm not sure if the class chose because of the common thread of humanity... I believe they felt it was an honor to have such great people speak.

[crazysoccerman14]

When he brought up that the violence of the past century could be on us.. it opened my eyes.

[Meirele]

"Our common humanity is more important than our diferences" - Very important ideia to keep in mind at all times !

[siasabora]

Bill is smart and knows what's he is talkin about....

[theeightgate]

how many stores do u thint the world has. its not possible. too many solders names and only a few stores.

[critics11]

As American Soldiers While Being In Battlefield Sacrifice Their Life To Secure America From Security Threats For Safety Of American People.If Such Kind Of Policy Being Made During The Presidency Of Barack Obama,Joe Biden,Hillary Clinton,Geithner,Ben Bernanke Will Provide Some Relief To The American Soldiers Family Whose Hard Effort Keeps The American Flag Colourful With Sparkling Shining Stars.

[critics11]

As American Soldiers Income Is Not That Much To Afford Everykind Of Durables When Only One Person Who Is In The Battalion Is Earning Cant This Be Possible For All American Soldiers Families Whatever The Goods,Householding Gadgets They Buy That All Would Be Tax Free Their Should Be No Taxes On Those Durables and Desirable Items.

[critics11]

This Is My America Our America And I Do Wants That All American Soldiers Wife Whose Husband Sacrificed Life In Iraq Must Always Be Honoured,Remembered.

[critics11]

War Of Words Rather Then War Of Ammuniation ,As People Consider What Is War,In War One Country Has To Win And Another To Defeated But The Country Who Has Won Is Also Considered As Looser A Winner Like America On Iraq During Bush Presidency.

[moe210333]

wow.. i love that speech soo inspiring

[mengtingw]

the police car alarms are so disturbing..

[critics11]

That Is More Then Enough For Me That You Think Good For Me Being The Good Hearted Person.What Is True That Is Known To Me & You Only,You Cared For Me As Well As I Do Feel The Same For You.Bye

[critics11]

Hi Prince,How Are You?Dude You Look Fabulous In Armaani Suit You Know What Buddy I Made The Gallery Of Songs Which I Have Dedicated To You.Hmmmmmmm You Made Me To Feel Like The Beard Person Who Is In Blue T-Shirt Dusky Complexioned At 0:02 Sec Of Speech,Dude When I Do The Shaven I Can Even Snatch Your GirlFriend.

[amoll]

Amazing knowledge & compassion !!!

[supercork]

Great speech.

[BTC141]

I love it when  a womanizer speaks. It warms the cockles of my bark!

[AlanCom1]

Inequality is fixable. No. Equality all around is communism, where all are equal at 2$ a day.

Also the instability that he mentioned and high cost of medical care is due to the government reducing the supply of health care through outright intervention or regulation.

Clinton's speech is kind of Jay Leno of popular and misinterpreted culture.

I wonder why Clinton did not do more while he was president. (One thing comes to mind killing bin Landen).

[misulienko1]

the point of a graduating speech is to inspire, to motivate the students to do good. And I think the popular "jay leno" speech is the best way to do it.

BTW: he didn't mean the equality litteraly

[shochaneroo]

I agree. He should have killed bin laden -- just like Bush did.

[pent656]

he makes me proud to be an american... and he makes me want to go to harvard.

[unknownfetish]

thanks for posting this

[mattthedamon]

well i will put it as this.. the inability of clinton to DO ANYTHING with respect to the taliban when he was there is one of the reason why the world is in such a bad shape now.. everyone is paranoid and rightly so.. noone can be trusted.. all he had to do was get rid of the taliban, make a sincere effort to solve the palestinian issue, reduce dependence on oil thw world would be a much better place.

[pent656]

he couldn't do anything because there were a lot of republicans in washington at the time preventing him from really accomplishing anything. they blocked a lot of his legislation.

[mattthedamon]

don't give me that bullshit man. Why the hell would republicans do that????? Just admit that Clinton screwed up with the Taliban. US didn't even recognise that regime. Only Pakistan did. It was NO secret that they were fostering terrorism. Northern Aliiance told the US, India warned US(Indian PM adressed the senate that they may reach US!)as did Russia about the grave danger. But clinton rebuked India and Russia and embarassed them. I am not saying that Clinton is bad, but he did screw up then.

[shochaneroo]

Who armed and trained the precursors to the Taliban monster in the first place? try to not be so shallow and parachial...I know it's probably a struggle for you.

[mattthedamon]

US armed taliban as all arms it supplied to pakistan were used there with US knowledge. also btw there was a clod war you know lmao. the US supplied the arms to them. the US turned a blind eye when they hijacked a plane during the last week of 1999. so there you go:)

[shochaneroo]

No, really?

[mattthedamon]

and then ur dad blew u!

[shochaneroo]

now that's intelligent. did your father molest you or something and that's why you lash out like that? you can get help.

[mattthedamon]

that's intelligent. repeating previous arguments. running out of ideas eh? well your mommy's pussy is sweet:)

[shochaneroo]

No - you are repeating other ideas. get a brain and stop repeating whatever you get from your McNews sources.

[mattthedamon]

ummm that was sad. so many weeks and thats ur best argument? funny now insert some leeches up ur ass!

[YLoPlatano]

that doesn't has nothing to do with bill clington, go back to high school please

[snowmansanta]

learn proper grammar and speech before commenting  RETARD

[bapu1869]

A great speaker and well informed President.

[CtrlAltDL337]

He doesn't even need an outline for this speech... genius.

[hayabusathemanslayer]

i think he still needs an outline, every good public speaker does. don't get me wrong, his speech is incredible! outline helps the speaker deliver a speech in a mannerly and orderly way. w/o it, a speaker might tend to be repetitive and off topic, or so i've been told

[StigMurtons]

Bill Clinton is the best speaker in the world, but anybody who says that he is the best president ever better check out "Chinagate".

[lindabalz]

Although I'm not American, but am still of the opinion that this man was one of most intelligent, human and able presidents the USA has ever had. Such a pity the US of all countries, got hung up on absurd inanities which Kings and Queens of England and other countries considered part and parcel of their existence for the last one or two thousand years! Fortunately there was not the pseudo moralistic media creeping around numerous royal corners! MR.CLINTON FOR PRESIDENT!

[henkimati]

I think you guys forget the fact that he is a human. Don't think you're any better just because that your faults in life haven't been in media blitz light.

[georgio316]

Someone is angry. Get a life!

[ColDwight]

@TimeToOrganize lol let me guess your a closeminded republican? YEP if it walks like it, talks like it and shit like it, then my gosh it must be ONE. LMAO

[jcomd]

A good speaker' but I would rather follow a good leader than a con artist. The comments below sadly suggests otherwise. General Patton was dyslexic and not always eloquent but he was a great leader. So judge your leaders on the actions not what their pie-holes spew. He is already running for UN sec-gen.

[Biafrans7]

Indeed, a man of great vision and deep philosophical anchor. Quite a contrast with the present leadership.

[Drethras]

George W. Bush can kiss my ass.

I WANT him to kiss it.

Bill Clinton for re-election ftw!

[934382]

The best president the US of A ever had. Period.

[peacethinker]

When I hear Clinton speak and then see Bush speak, it's so obvious that Bush is a simpleton half-wit.

[robtul12]

Bill Clinton was the BEST President this country ever had and likely ever will have. One without any demeaning pet names like "Dubya."

[Acelib]

Now THIS is what a uniter sounds like.

[spazquesters]

wow...this guy is my hero....love em

[Pierro28]

Bill is SMART, WISE and INTELLIGENT PERIOD!!

[ColDwight]

@Pierro28 plus he cares about humanity, not just his own party and idealogies like TEABAGGERS & REPUBLICANS

[jbtvt]

@ColDwight The irony is, by saying this, you're doing the exact same thing as them: Focusing on the .1% rather than the 99.9%. I advise you to watch the video again.

[ColDwight]

@jbtvt how am I doing the exact same thing as them? I'm sure there's major portion of conservatives that dont even have world views in general and its just about Americans, against gays, immigration and evolution. People dont think of the bigger picture that there's people elsewhere and their human just like us.

[jbtvt]

@ColDwight You really don't see it? Geez guy. YOU are focusing on the .1% that is different, their political beliefs, rather than their humanity! There are also large numbers of conservatives who aren't against those things you list. And those who are may have lost a job to immigration. Have you? They may have had a poor education focused around religion. Have you? Loads of conservatives are much more traveled than you, I guarantee it, even the moderately heeled ones like myself.

[ColDwight]

@jbtvt there are conservatives who aren't against them but most are lol have you seen the republican nominees,conservatives in general are more paranoid and colleges even studied this.I'm sure that .1% of conservatives are the one that you just explained and its the other way around.Loads of conservatives are more traveled than me?lmao i highly doubt that, I've lived abroad, served my country for 4 years and have a more broadened perspective. I was stationed in the south and exp proves it.

[jbtvt]

@ColDwight You certainly LOL at yourself a lot. Many liberals believe in "chemtrails" and truthers. Look at the "occupy" fruitcakes freaking out when a jet flies overhead. Nuts are on both sides. Toot your own horn all you want, I've personally been to ~15 countries, all over the US, and still know loads of conservatives more traveled than I am. You are trying to fit 150+ million Americans into a single backwoods GA stereotype. Your own words display your bigotry and lack of life experience.

[hopefloat007]

bill clinton is great

[Proneural]

Wow Zile77, I am amazed that one could fit so much racism and ignorance into a single sentence. Well done.

[erik28com]

The founding fathers are rolling in the grave at the ease with which you condemn someone to be hung for treason. They made it so treason was a rare crime because they were all accused of it by the british government in their time.

[afkamistan]

Bravo.

[chuckerchucker]

Amazing that you seem to care more about your definition of treason than the fact that was a racially motivated comment.
