Public Opinion: Michelle Obama's Democratic National Convention Speech
Reader Comments
One speech cannot undo
all the other speeches she has given. You know, the ones where she said she was "proud of her country for the first time in her adult life"....
Last nights speech was complete and total lie. All she was doing was reading words someone else typed up on a teleprompter. I'll admit she did it reasonably well. But what does is matter how well you say something when you don't mean it?
She and Barack H. Obama do not like America. They believe in an America that is drastically different from what the founding fathers intended. Jefferson, Franklin, Hamilton, et.al. did not believe in a socialist paradise. They believed in a nation where people are "endowed by their Creator (not Allah) with certain unalienable rights" including "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." The American dream is merely having the chance. There are no guarantees of a certain standard of living. Only that you should have the chance to live and pursue your dreams according to your ability and effort. (Unless, of course, you happen to be an unwanted infant who survives an abortion in Barry Hussein Obama's America--then, you would be denied life support and left for dead)
Michelle delivered a good talk, much like her media-anointed Messiah hubby does when he's reading from a teleprompter. But any goof can read empty words from a teleprompter. What matters is what they say when they're "keepin' it real". When it's not scripted. Things like "I'm finally proud of America for the first time ever" and things like "William Ayers is a decent and respectable man". Those are the real Obamas, and they are downright frightening.

Michelle's Speech
I thought Michelle's speech was right on point I felt it to be genuine. I also believe that with her by Obama's side he will be a great leader for our country and make great changes in our lives it is time for a change and he does have what it takes to have that thin thread hold us together even when we disagree. Because I believe he is a man of truth and integrity and he have the american people's interest at best. So Great speech michelle you keep using the gifts that God has blessed you with.
change what exactly?
Admittedly, I have not paid much attention to B. Obama and the major premises of his campaign. I am familiar with both parties general platform, though they both tend to vacillate as popular opinion dictates. So, my question, with no intent to pick a fight, is, what exactly is Obama promising to change that has everybody so hyped up?
MICHELLE'S SPEECH
I THOUGHT MICHELLE'S SPEECH WAS JUST AN EXTENSION OF THE WHOLE OBAMA CAMPAIGN - A LOT OF PROMISE AND NO SUBSTANCE. THE OBAMAS SEEM TO BE WRITING A LOT OF CHECKS THEY HAVE NO WAY OF CASHING.THEY TRIED HARD TO LOOK LIKE AN AVERAGE AMERICAN FAMILY BUT IN MY OPINION, THEY DIDN'T PULL IT OFF. THEY COME ACROSS AS PHONY AND CONDENSENDING.I HOPE THE MAJORITY OF AMERICANS ARE SMART ENOUGH TO SEE THROUGH THEM.
Michelle, God has truely given you gifts !!!!!
Michelle, you are an Excellent Beautiful Lady, who listens to good advise and does what you know in your heart is right. God has truely blessed you. You are down to earth and even as God is holding you high, your selflessness, sweetness, and strength are an illuminating light as you esteem others above yourself. God Bless you with good in all you do. When people learn to listen, they will see what I see in you and your husband who truely care about the people of the USA. God has risen you this far, it truely is in His hands to get you to where you want to be. God's will be done. If it is you, Barack, and Biden, that He wants in office, then not one thing will stop Him. You spoke from your heart. Your family must be pleased that God has blessed you. I have read the changes Barack Obama is striving for and I agree with those changes. Pray always,
With Love
Obama vs. McCain
Unusually this year, there is a real difference between the candidates. Obama lacks substance and experience. Neither a big top display at the democratic convention or all the Hollywood polish and glitz should hide the fact that Obama like Jimmy Carter years before him is very ill suited to running this Country. What distinguishes Obama from a cast of freshmen senators? The asnswer is nothing. John McCain is a genuine American hero albeit from an unpopular war. He is not a Hollywood invention. He walked the walk. He has a distinguished career serving his country for almost 50 years.
great speech
Michelle did a great job, and you could hear the passion in her voice. Great job and yes i am ready for change!!!!
