WASHINGTON (AP) -- The White House says six high schools - from Washington state to New Jersey - have been chosen as finalists in a competition to land President Barack Obama as their commencement speaker.
They are: Bridgeport High School in Bridgeport, Wash.; Wayne Early Middle College High School in Goldsboro, N.C., and Booker T. Washington High School in Memphis, Tenn.

The risk of inviting Obama for a commencement speech is that Biden might come instead.
Where the schvatzas are.
ML/NJ
CA, NJ and WA are "givens" for his reelection, PA probably too. DNC '12 is in NC. TN went McCain in '08.
If they actually do want him to show up, I would advise the “winning” school (I use the word loosely) not to ask Obama to bring *his* high school diploma with him.
Sheesh - talk about the proverbial “Booby Prize”!
No doubt: It will be the one in NC or PA or both.
No it will be all black Booker T. in Memphis.
Seems I heard Rush talking a couple of weeks ago about how there were so few colleges asking for BamBam to speak at commencement, they (the WH? or whoever is in charge of this event) had to keep extending the deadline, encouraging more schools to ask.
I guess the high school kids are still stupid enough to listen to him...?
I hope the bastard stays out of the south. We don’t need another speech from a democrat pushing slavery.
