@Dewardbowles It would make sense if the Commander-In-Chief didn't mispronounce "corpsmen" corpse-men a year or so later. Or was that an inside joke as well?

me too. Class of '09

He was alluding to an inside joke that a graduating senior had stated prior.

Like the person who put up this video, I was in attendance at today's ceremony. Unlike the person who put up this video-who is clearly either a moron or a partisan looking to portray this as a gaffe--I paid attention to the fact that the PRESIDENT OF THE UNIVERSITY and the VALEDICTORIAN both made jokes about confusing the schools' names prior to Obama doing the same. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news poster, but IT'S A JOKE and A NON-ISSUE.

REPUBLICANS CAN'T UNDERSTAND HUMOR!!! unless if it's coming from john McCRAZY "BOMB, BOMB, BOMB... BOMB... BOMB, BOMB IRAN" that's a joke for them.

I was there. He did it on purpose. It was a joke.

People are so fast to find something negative to say about Obama! I love it...idiots make fools out of themselves with stupid attempts...I say just get ready to call him Mr. President and stop with all the hating!

if you are a wesleyan student or alum, you would understand that it is a joke referencing the confusion that is often made between the two schools by outsiders. fox news even reported a few days ago that obama was speaking at 'hillary's alma mater,' or wellesly college! the class of 2008 made a similar joke not minutes earlier in the commencement. i was there, everybody got it.
Inside joke, you just don't get it.
I can hardly wait to see the whole thing and not some snippet from somebody who does not know what they are talking about.
