A speech about the current events is not relevant? Besides, with the war, terrorism and feverish patriotism I think it is a very appropriate topic, and it affects everyone. Mostly the graduates who are going into a "weak" economy and a unstable international environment.
This person chose to speak his mind and the least the "graduates" could do was hear his point of view. Instead they chose to act with their biases and ignorance. What good is democracy when we do not even attempt to practice it.
