Mark Knoller (@markknoller) May 14, 2012President Obama’s commencement speech at Barnard College will address the nation and young women, because women must be separated out into some monolithic voting bloc and not included with the general population. He’s likely looking for an audience full of “Julias.” Carney also said, with what we assume was a straight face, that he wasn’t sure if President Obama saw the Newsweek cover outing him as the first gay president.

That’s rich. Obama probably had it blown up so that he could gaze at it and admire himself.
New Yorkers may not be so thrilled with the pander-monium at Barnard College.
Obama is driving from Wall Street to Barnard now. #gridlockalert—

But, hey, what’s some major inconvenience for everyone else so long as The One can stroke his own ego and pander like the wind?
You can follow Obama’s Barnard commencement address live on Twitter and Twitchy will report on it as it happens.

President Obama will bring his pander-fest to The View as well.
While in NYC, Pres Obama will be taping an appearance this afternoon on "The View." It'll air tomorrow.—

We predict the hard-hitting questions offered by the ladies at The View will be along these lines:
“Would you say that you are THE Greatest man alive or the GREATEST man alive?”
“So, about your “laser like focus” on jobs … OMG your eyes take my breath away!”
“Do you wash your clothes with Windex? Because I can see myself in your pants.”
Shouldn't Obama be a little too busy to appear on The View tomorrow?—

I'm going to vote against Obama this year simply based on the amount of times he's been on "The View."—

Only in the US: President Obama on The View tomorrow. President of the US will be sitting and talking with Sherry Shepherd? What?! OMG—

Even an Obama supporter is a bit confused by The View schedule.
Why is Barack Obama going to be on the view tomorrow? Like I think he's a great president but shouldn't he be doing more important things?—

It is important … to him. Pander! Pander like the wind!
FYI, Obama’s insatiable thirst for pandering resulted in the previously booked Barnard commencement speaker, a woman, being booted from the schedule.
War on women! When you can’t run on your record, use women as pawns. Standard operating procedure for Democrats.
