NEVER. UNDER. ANY. CIRCUMSTANCE. RING. THE. BELL.
Home is where my heart is.
Are you trying to fry my brain. You crazy man. Not a medical doctor .. you are a general. Admiral for give me. With all respect.
Yeah, well, I wish they'd put university students, and teachers through the same process. We wouldn't have to be putting up with the academia trash, sniveling moral, and intellectual weaklings that they are being produced now! BTW, this is not a Commencement Address. It is a "Graduation" address; hence the mortar boards, and gowns.
Am I the only one who thinks he'd make a great President? I mean this speech alone should get him a consideration. He's inspiring, smart, served his country on the front lines as a navy seal. Has intimate knowledge of how the military works. Yet is he still kind and compassionate to everyone regardless of gender or race. He has a strong sense of morals and character, always wishing to help. He doesn't show favoritism to either side of the political spectrum. As he himself said he's "dead center" on the political line. Both Bush and Obama respect him. And I could go about his numerous awards and qualifications. But yeah, in my opinion. William McRaven should be Commander and Chief
How could he like and back Hillary Clinton???
He makes his bed every morning..
I've suffered from bad MDD for all my life. And I've been impressed by McRaven's "make your bed" speech. However, as I listen further, my depression worsens. Because his roadmap requires social support. Along with a lotta other isolated and aging ppl with intractable MMD (and with it, pretty much all the doors of opportunities are permanently closed), we do not have adequate social support. Worse, our robotic Mental Health Machine has few options for ppl who call a crisis line. THe most immoral thing about "Mandatory Reporting" (I know, I've had cops knocking on my apartment door on three occasions) is that it is a legalistic escape. I've never had the person who initiatiated that process ever call me back to check in on me. So, essentially, it outsources responsibility in an open-loop way. The initiator is temporarily inconvenienced by the caller's distress, but by the press of a button, the problem is solved, as far as our crappy MHM is concerned. Indeed, it is an empathy-eliminator. Rah rah, US health care. Because just about everyone I know has adequate social support and those in the system cannot even picture the desperate reality of those of us with none. Yeah, mandatory reporting is useful in many contexts. But it can facilitate suicides in those desperate cases, because it's the MHM's way of rejecting people. Rah, Rah, US Health Care. Sadly, the MHM teaches the desperate not to bother with these counter-productive options next time, because they are painful and can worsen already bad situations.
Incroiable cet homme ! IL EST "LE NAPOLEON DE LES ETATS UNITS !" ...UN GRAND GAGNEUR ET UN HOMME FAVORISSER POUR LE POST DU PRESIDENT !!!! Finallement je vous salut avec tout mon respect MON ADMIRAL !!!!

I dont know about this guys political leanings, but when The Republic calls...these men usually answer...after the debate last night I would have a good idea for the Democratic Party.
As a Western Australian I would like to Know. When will Our American Friends Nominate Men of The Admirals Calibre for President. And Dismiss the Republican And Democat System of Voting.
His education sure did teach him to multitask. He multitasks so well he was able to perform multiple heart surgeries at the same time!

Humble???? Arthel Neville? What a Joke!!!
Arthel Neville is a horrible representative of The truth!!! Like all the Trumps! Liars! Pathetic
10 years later, still one of the best speeches I’ve ever heard.
The only thing people see is success, they don't see the sacrifice you made to achieve it.
Ilumunati got yall crazy, that permanent hell that's waiting is the cure.
Hey u friggin retard U know that man that plays female basketball His name is Brittany I guess They took weed to Russia U said he didn’t take it Are u lying and part of Fox News idiots too? I think so
This lady is a Brittney griner loving moron. Do not trust this idiot woman
I first heard this speech about 10 years ago and think of it every morning as I think of excuses not to make my bed then force myself to do it every morning.
I'm not even going to lie to you, I remember vividly watching this speech during gym class when I was in Elementary School, and the kid sitting right next to me kept bitching about how this soldier pronounced the letter "S"
General Washington letter..
Mr. Mcraven looks like Sal from Breaking Bad….
There is an entire generation of gen z that needs to listen to this speech.
My respects!
That one buddy from high school who is less than 6 foot tall but joined a welders union:
Whom is also laid off 4 months a year*******
"Face down the bullies" like the Mao Tse Biden regime!!

Says the guy on KZread.... Figure it out my guy. If he helps people with this speech whats it to you. He served my country to provide the opportunity to live in my home. Nobody is perfect. If it helps people and you are butthurt who is the pompous asshole?
You know you have achieved greatness if you’re a Fleet Admiral like Admiral, McRaven. Sir, Thank you so,so much for your service. I hold awareness that you were recently honourably discharged from Duty, at a rank that so few sailors earn. If I was with you, I’d 1000% salute, you. I’m a Naval Avaitor who is a Captain, with to MoHs, to my name. However, I will never get to your level. Those stars, on your boards, were hard-earned. Before I was commissioned, with the class of 2031, from the United States Naval Activity, I was at the top of my class. With the rank of 1; Valedictorian, status. Even though, I came from a service academy, I will always respect you, even if you did come from UT’s NROTC. I have the understanding, that you wear the double gold reeves, with pride, happiness and honor. Better than that, you’re an officer, with the gold strap. You also have one hell of a large service record, with, 80+ decorations. Before I made ENS, when I was still a kid, I had great, GREAT, respect for people like you. I had respect for service members, even when I was a lone wolf. I’d thank every, service members, for the service, and I’d say,especially to war vets ‘ Without you, the Stars and Stripes, would crumble.’ Or ‘ You make this country INCREDIBLE.’ Same goes for you,sir. I will always salute you. Now that you’re a veteran, enjoy retirement. People with four stars, who earn that rare rank, (Bear in mind, for all of you: Not everyone earns Admiral, or General, within their careers. If you don’t make it, before retirement, that does NOT make you less of a person, you still are incredible. Just know, there are only 100 active duty Admirals and Generals, serving in the Armed Forces. You NEED to be appointed by the President. You need to be appointed in the first place to become an O1, in the first place, by the President. Not all earn the stars. I’m somehow due in 8 years, to earn a star. The reason why that is, every job requires to serve a certain amount, even if base is 5-8. This could include anywhere from a decade, to 30 or 40, years. Every rank has their measurement. Once it’s hit, you’re done. There are certain exceptions: Your dependent, is a Sophomore, and if the circumstances really allow it, they will keep you in, until he or she, crosses that stage and earns, the diploma. This is rare.) deserve it, You have gone through hell, on earth, and made it out alive, with a rank so few achieve. Congratulations sir, on an incredible service. -Captain Harry ‘OrderPhoenix’ Weasley, Doris Miller (CVN 81), United States Navy. P.S. Keep on, conquering, having a successful marriage, giving speeches about the Navy, and your time in service. Enjoy your retirement. Most of all, Keep being the incredible king, Admiral, Husband, and man that you always are. I will always, salute you.
Excellent!!
William H. McRaven for president. Write him in.
No one listened. I did
Great speech. Love it. Saddened to learn he is a left wing Democrat.
I listen to this every once in a while
Why is this woman on TV? She constantly stumbled over her words, her thoughts. Incredibly unprofessional, not very smart, laughs at inappropriate times, clueless. She should join the other airheads on MSNBC. She's horrible. I just don't get it. Who did she go down on?
hats on crooked
