The bio and interview of Mrs. Obama on CNN made me sad.
She was Barracks mentor when they first met. Now she is the woman behind the man, his "rock" etc.
ugh
It isn't possible to count how many women have put their dreams and goals on hold so that the man they were with could achieve...I'm so tired of witnessing that scenario
Right now we have a chance to support a woman who has earned our support and faith.
I don't care that she is white.
I care that she supports GLBTQ rights, Choice, Universal Health Care
and she knows how to play the game.
Right now, she is the only one who is owning being a politician. I'm disgusted by politicians, who are politicking, saying they are not politicians- pullease.
What's happening here

Yes! You have the uncanny ability to steal my thoughts and write them out better than I ever could. In short, you rock.

Hill.A.Ry! Hill.A.Ry!

The thing that bugs me about the "woman behind the man," etc. -- Michelle is accomplished in her own right. Why must they gloss over that and say she's now in the background, just because he's running for president (and his ego runs just about everybody over who's around him)?

Anyway... I'm voting (I voted!) for Hillary. Proud to do it. And Bill will look so nice in a dress. :-)
