Three pieces of advice from President Obama

In this time of being leaderless, of being out to sea without a captain, with messages of snake oil and wishful thinking, it bears repeating some advice from a real president, to the kids who are coming into this conflagration we have left them:

  1. Don’t be afraid.

  2. Do what you think is right.

  3. Build a community.

I particularly like that last one. Because without a community, what’s the point of any of this?

To the youth of tomorrow, I am sorry. Please do better than us.
