Michelle Obama demonstrates everything that's good about our country.

When we're successful we don't close the door. We leave it open and help others get through. Success is not measured by material wealth. It's measured by love toward family and other people regardless of race, creed or beliefs.

Thanks for the repost.

And it was brilliant....not only in what was said but with the human emotions intact....it looked real.
And she looked fit and beautiful and showed off those beautiful shoulders...
What a difference between her and Ann Rmoney....Ann in her corporate wife outfit and no appeal to personal emotions...just often told stories, and assumed to be true.

have we come to? Rather than assailing no pay for work and the gross underfunding of public education Michelle Obama lauds it as some sort of noble sacrifice. How absurd is that?
