The Hillary Clinton and Michelle Obama Effects

Lady get off the soap box. What is so special about you that society should think your thoughts and feel your pretentious emotions of being an expert on Michelle Obama or Hilary Clinton, or any other public figure? How much time have you spent with either of the ladies or other public fitures? How long have you or did your work with either of them? Did you go to college with either of them? Stop being degrading and try to support both ladies. They are both brilliant ladies.

The United States has a huge responsibility to correct the mess the present administration (and that includes our Senate and House of Representatives) has allowed this country to sink into in the past few years. As a contributing editor, instead of falling into the trap of personal characterization, I would prefer to see you direct your brilliant mind to assisting in solving the financial mess the country is now experiencing.

I believe this is still the United States of America and Michelle is still a woman and women do change their minds from time to time.

Too hard to hold Mechelle to Mom in Chief

as she really doesn't want that job. That's why she's dragging her MOTHER to DC!

I'M CONFUSED....

Wasn't the Obamatron mantra, "Change".... A "New Deal" is Washington? Well, maybe it's a "new deal" but those cards are lookin' pretty worn and familiar... And I don't think I trust the guy who's dealin'...

Hillary and Barack

I think Hillary would be an excellant choice for sec state. He needs people around him that will speak their mind, not just yes men or women. Please let her be the pick.
