the campaign that they need you to help run things.

Michelle Obama is saying for the first time in her life people are coming together in great numbers to work for change and that makes her proud. Sure, lots of people have been working for change for a long, long time, but their percentage of the population was such that it was hard to make a dent in poverty (or politics). Why shouldn't she be happy that many people are getting excited and wanting to help? How is that denigrating others who have been trying all along? And why call her husband Barry when you know it annoys Obama's supporters.

I had no problem understanding what she meant, although she could have said it better. She wasn't trying to be exclusive of people working for change in the past.

I can't believe you could think his defense of his wife was a threat to anyone. I'd call it a plea. It feels bad to have a loved one crucified. Bill has certainly come to the defense of Hillary plenty of times. I have yet to hear anyone call it threats.

I know many black people in Florida. Some are in the kitchen. Some are doctors, lawyers, lawn workers, computer techs, nurses, nurses aides, laundry workers, and any other job you can think of, just like everywhere else in the country.
