WATCH: Hillary Clinton Delivers Commencement Speech At Wellesley College
Source: NPR
On Friday, Hillary Clinton addressed the graduating class of her alma mater, Wellesley College.
"You may have heard that things didn't go exactly as I planned. But you know what, I'm doing O.K.," she said. She talked about spending time with her family after the election, walking in the woods, organizing her closets and added, "I won't lie, chardonnay helped a little too."
But what helped her most, she said, was "remembering who I am, where I come from and what I believe."
It's a familiar stage for her Clinton delivered the commencement address as a College Government president in 1969 and again 25 years ago.

Watching it now, she's spearing trump left and right, over and over again, without mentioning his name. A beauty to behold!
Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to post this before the speech was half over, but I'm sure there will be video on news outlets and youtube. Well worth the watch.

(59,504 posts)As there are so many good speeches out there - if you are limited for time, watch the end of this one -- where Kerry gives a charge to the students taken from the Vietnam Protest era response - "My country, wrong or right" which added "when right keep it right and wrong make it right". In this case, expanded to be the world, not country.
A strong activist message from someone who started his public life as an activist.
