I think he is also going to the LBJ library for a conference on Vietnam and to speak to Ken Burns, before going to Vietnam before Obama does. http://dfw.cbslocal.com/2016/04/25/secretary-kerry-to-revisit-vietnam-war-before-obama-trip/

...I had half his energy.

Seriously though, I am looking forward to what he says on this subject. Pepperdine was phenomenal. I just remember the seriousness of that speech AND that he was in a very conservative setting. This speech will have a similar setting, being at the Baker Center.

I have read less than half and it is a fantastic speech - more like Yale, than Pepperdine - and there more on impact on policy than religion.
