michelle obama
wow, I am watching a speech that Michelle Obama gave in Indiana on Friday 4/25...wow. It's the first time I've taken the time to sit down and listen to where she is coming from and what she stands for...in her own right. wow. She was fantastic. she shared a feeling that communicated something I haven't felt in a leader in more than a long time...
Right now, I'm thinkin' that nothing would say that this is really America to the rest of the world more than seeing Barack with his hand on the Bible on Jan 20. wow, she just did a fantastic job.
it is pretty amazing that the person who raised Barack was an 18 year old white woman in the 60's...his grandfather was a servant in Kenya...and his wife was raised by her parents with her three siblings in the south side of Chicago in an apartment on a single income that came from her father, a city worker who had multiple sclerosis.
needless to say, she gave a damn good first rally impression.

Hi Patrick...thanks for sharing that about Michelle Obama...I'm living here in Indiana and have been so busy all weekend that I forgot she was speaking here. I 'll have to look the speech up on Youtube. The Obamas just seem so authentic. I feel that I could look at them as our first family and actually be proud. Might sound corny....but I haven't done that for a long time.
Peace to you.
