I would never vote for Michelle Obama certainly not because of the color of her skin as every man and woman is equal and as she has portrayed can indeed go to Ivy League schoolsm but rather because she is prejudice in her views and first up, this narrow-minded individual forgets that these United States of America is the first country in the world to actually pass laws and implement such laws against slavery.
We do not need a first lady whose agenda is to enhance the advancement of blacks, but a woman who understands that the greaseballs, the ginnies, my own Grandfather's push-cart filled with fruit which gave him a few dollars of day to bring back after walking 30-40 miles daily was tipped over because he was Greek and how many whites including myself who would not be hired because no one apply - only Irish - well simple-minded, Mrs. Obama, guess what...we all worked hard, lived in our own little neighborhoods to learn the language, maintained our traditions and customs and as proud as we were for our respective differences, we have always respected others and very proud to be Americans, a nation which has been the beacon of hope for so, so many....
