President Barak Obama symobilizes a new dawning in the history of the United States of America. His humble beginnings rooted in diversity and lessons learned from the Aloha state truly make him an appropriate choice to address the 2009 graduates of the University of Hawaii at Manoa. His vision and direction will engender us to be a life a force of change for the future of Hawaii, the US and the globe. This petition is to request the President of the United States of America Barak Obama to speak on Saturday, May 16, 2009 to the graduating class of the University of Hawaii at Manoa.
