This is your day and you’ve earned every minute of it. And I’m thrilled to be back at Liberty University. I’ve been here, this is now my third time. And we love setting records, right? We always set records. We have to set records, we have no choice.
It’s been a little over a year since I’ve spoken on your beautiful campus and so much has changed. Right here, the class of 2017, dressed in cap and gown, graduating to a totally brilliant future. And here I am standing before you as president of the United States. So I’m guessing there are some people here today who thought that either one of those things, either one, would really require major help from God. Do we agree? And we got it. 0687名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/19(木) 01:57:05.18 But here we are celebrating together on this very joyous occasion. And there is no place in the world I’d rather be to give my first commencement address as president than here with my wonderful friends at Liberty University.
And I accepted this invitation a long time ago. I said to Jerry that I’d be there, and when I say something I mean it.
I want to thank President Jerry Falwell and his incredible wife, Becky ? stand up, Becky ? for their kind words, their steadfast support, and their really wonderful friendship. 0688名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/19(木) 01:57:15.08 Let me also extend our appreciation to the entire Falwell family, Trey, Sarah, Wesley, Laura and Caroline. Thank you for everything you do to make this university so exceptional, one of the truly great, great schools.
Most importantly to our new graduates, each of you should take immense pride in what you have achieved. There’s another group of amazing people we want to celebrate today and they are the ones who have made this journey possible for you. And you know who that is? Nobody, you forgot already. You’re going to go out, you’re going to do whatever you’re going to do, some are going to make a lot of money, some are going to be even happier doing other things. They’re your parents and your grandparents, don’t forget them. 0689名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/19(木) 01:57:30.50 You haven’t forgotten yet, have you? Never, ever forget them, they’re great.
And especially this weekend, let’s make sure we give a really extra special thanks to the moms.
Don’t forget our moms, because graduates, today is your day. Today is your day. But in all of this excitement don’t forget that tomorrow is Mother’s Day, right? I had a great mother, she’s looking down now, but I had a great mother. I always loved Mother’s Day.
We’re also deeply honored to be joined by some of the nearly 6,000 service members, military veterans and military spouses who are receiving their diplomas today.
Will you please stand? Please stand. 0690名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/19(木) 01:57:39.81 Wow, that’s great. Thank you very much, great job. We’re profoundly grateful to every single one of you who sacrifice to keep us safe and protect God’s precious gift of freedom. It is truly a testament to this university and to the values that you embrace that your graduating class includes so many patriots who have served our country in uniform. Thank you very much. 0691名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/19(木) 01:57:47.56 To the class of 2017, today you end one chapter, but you are about to begin the greatest adventure of your life. Just think for a moment of how blessed you are to be here today at this great, great university, living in this amazing country, surrounded by people who you love and care about so much. Then ask yourself, with all of those blessings and all of the blessings that you’ve been given, what will you give back to this country and indeed to the world? What imprint will you leave in the sands of history? What will future Americans say we did in our brief time right here on earth? Did we take risks? Did we dare to defy expectations? Did we challenge accepted wisdom and take on established systems? I think I did, but we all did and we’re all doing it. 0692名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/19(木) 01:57:55.10 Or did we just go along with convention, swim downstream so easily with the current and just give in because it was the easy way, it was the traditional way or it was the accepted way?
Remember this, nothing worth doing ever, ever, ever came easy. Following your convictions means you must be willing to face criticism from those who lack the same courage to do what is right. And they know what is right, but they don’t have the courage or the guts or the stamina to take it and to do it. It’s called the road less traveled. 0693名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/19(木) 01:58:04.40 I know that each of you will be a warrior for the truth, will be a warrior for our country and for your family. I know that each of you will do what is right, not what is the easy way, and that you will be true to yourself and your country and your beliefs.
In my short time in Washington I’ve seen firsthand how the system is broken. A small group of failed voices who think they know everything and understand everyone want to tell everybody else how to live and what to do and how to think. But you aren’t going to let other people tell you what you believe, especially when you know that you’re right. 0694名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/19(木) 01:58:12.11 And those of you graduating here today, who have given half-a- million hours of charity last year alone, unbelievable amount of work and charity, and few universities or colleges can claim anything even close, we don’t need a lecture from Washington on how to lead our lives. I’m standing here looking at the next generation of American leaders. There may very well be a president or two in our midst.
Anybody think they’re going to be president? Raise your hand. 0695名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/19(木) 01:58:20.46 In your hearts are inscribed the values of service, sacrifice and devotion. Now you must go forth into the world and turn your hopes and dreams into action. America has always been the land of dreams because America is a nation of true believers. When the pilgrims landed at Plymouth they prayed. When the Founders wrote the Declaration of Independence, they invoked our creator four times, because in America we don’t worship government, we worship God. 0696名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/19(木) 01:58:33.42 That is why our elected officials put their hands on the Bible and say, “so help me God” as they take the oath of office. It is why our currency proudly declares, “in God we trust.” And it’s why we proudly proclaim that we are one nation under God, every time we say the Pledge of Allegiance.
The story of America is the story of an adventure that began with deep faith, big dreams and humble beginnings. That is also the story of Liberty University. When I think about the visionary founder of this great institution, Reverend Jerry Falwell Senior, I can only imagine how excited he would be if he could see all of this and all of you today, and how proud he would be of his son and of his family. 0697名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/19(木) 01:58:47.69 In just two days we will mark the 10th anniversary of Reverend Falwell’s passing. And I used to love watching him on television, hearing him preach. He was a very special man. He would be so proud, not just at what you’ve achieved, but of the young men and women of character that you’ve all become.
And, Jerry, I know your dad is looking down on you right now and he is proud, he is very proud. So congratulations on a great job, Jerry.
Reverend Falwell’s life is a testament to the power of faith to change the world. The inspiring legacy that we see all around us in this great stadium ? this is a beautiful stadium and it is packed. I’m so happy about that. I said, how are you going to fill up a place like that? 0698名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/19(木) 01:59:13.15 It is packed, Jerry.
In this beautiful campus and in your smiling faces, but it all began with a vision. That vision was of a world-class university for evangelical Christians. And I want to thank you because, boy, did you come out and vote, those of you that are old enough, in other words your parents. Boy, oh, boy, you voted, you voted.
No doubt many people told him his vision wasn’t possible, and I am sure they continued to say that so long after he started, at the beginning with just 154 students. But the fact is, no one has ever achieved anything significant without a chorus of critics standing on the sidelines explaining why it can’t be done. Nothing is easier or more pathetic than being a critic, because they’re people that can’t get the job done. But the future belongs to the dreamers, not to the critics. The future belongs to the people who follow their heart no matter what the critics say, because they truly believe in their vision. 0699名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/19(木) 04:28:33.10 日本語でおｋ 0700名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/19(木) 04:28:50.10 (6 lゝ､●.ﾉ ヽ､●_ノ |!/ | ,.' i､ |} ', ,`ｰ'ﾞ､_ l ＼ ､'､v三ﾂ / |＼ ´ ｀ , イﾄ､ ／ﾊ ` ｀二 二´ ´ / |:::ヽ ／::::/ ', : . . : / |:::::::ﾊヽ https://twitter.com/ibuki_air https://twitter.com/5chan_nel (5ch newer account) 0701名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/20(金) 00:30:33.30 ないぞ 0702名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/20(金) 00:32:19.15 もう終わりだろこれ 0703名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/20(金) 00:33:30.53 たてろゴミども 0704名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/20(金) 14:57:21.93 おしゅし🤗 0705名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/20(金) 14:57:25.54 おしゅし🤗 0706名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/20(金) 14:57:31.85 スレ待ちおしゅし🤗 0707名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/20(金) 15:00:30.03 はよたてんかい 0708名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/23(月) 02:20:30.04 たってないじょん 0709名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/23(月) 02:22:08.53 こんなカビ臭いスレを使うのかよ 0710名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/23(月) 02:22:38.92 みんなしおるーむ声明のほうで忙しいのかな 0711名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/23(月) 02:23:36.93 アイドル部はピ信をパージするだす 0712名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/23(月) 02:25:18.09 950過ぎたら立てろ。頭お塩かお前ら 0713名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/23(月) 02:25:58.99 ドルファンはピシン書き込み禁止だぞ？ 0714名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/23(月) 02:36:00.65 ドルアンどこ🥺 0715名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/23(月) 02:40:39.98 CIAやFBIがgoogle facebook twitter などを裏で操ってる可能性あり 5ちゃんでさえさだかじゃない 気を付けろよ 0716名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/23(月) 02:42:28.42 神スレが復活しない�� 0717名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/23(月) 02:46:36.54 新スレたてて 0718名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/23(月) 02:50:14.50 ちえりのポッ拳見てるけど開幕からイラつくな 「説明書もってくるのだるいから操作教えて」→コメで教えてもらう→ちえりの勘違いで失敗→「嘘つきは嫌い」 0719名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/23(月) 02:53:36.79>>718 ただのクソ女じゃないか･･･ 0720名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。2020/11/23(月) 02:54:12.14 ・栞桜ちゃん発信の文章と言うだけで涙出る ・うーん、入院っすか… ・栞桜ちゃんうおおおおおおお ・入院は心配だけど、久々に栞桜さんの言葉が見れて良かった！！！！ 戻ってきてくれるって意思も改めて示してくれた！ゆっくり安静にして、また元気な姿を見せて下さい！ ・今はゆっくり自分のことに専念して、またいつか楽しい配信を見せてくれると嬉しい ・心配だけど安心したこれが素直な感想です ・心配だけど近況聞けただけでも良かった ・どこまでが真実でどこまでが虚構なのか ・早く良くなるといいね。 ・とりあえず生きてるみたいなので何より。 ・声明が見れただけでもすごく安心したいつでもお待ちしております ・ゆっくり休んで、ふらっと復活して配信してもろてスパチャの用意は･･･出来てる ・つまりまた待ってればいいのね ・入院中の代理投稿になっちゃうのほんとしんどいな……ご自愛ください。 ・最初の「こんにちは」だけで大分救われた
