13. That'll win them over in the "Proud To Be An American" states.

MILWAUKEE -- So what did Michelle Obama think of the United States before her husband decided he wanted to run the place?

“For the first time in my adult life, I am proud of my country,” she told a Milwaukee crowd today, “because it feels like hope is making a comeback.”

She was born in 1964, became an adult in 1982 or 1985, depending on how you look at it, and so it's taken her almost 20 years to find a reason to be proud of this country.

Keep talking, Michelle.
