Hasn't it occurred to anyone that she has a French first name: Michelle. Is she one of those cheese eating monkeys? Would America feel comfortable with a president that has a French name? I don't think so.

Michelle & Paul shared almost 60% of all votes between them,
well over half at 56.2%
Michelle = 28.55%
Ron Paul = 27.65%

The next closes was Pawlenty at less than half of what either Michelle or Paul received.
Pawlenty = 13.57%

I guess you are also uncomfortable with the current FLOTUS having what you express as a French name as well.

4823 for Bachman
4671 for Ron Paul
2293 for Pawlenty
1567 for Santorum
1456 for Cain
718 for Perry (write in)
567 Romney
385 Gingrich
69 Huntsman
35 McCotter

see dailypaul.com

I haven't gotten my calculator out yet but does this add up to 16,800 votes? It doesn't seem like it to me and that is what CNN said the total number (approx) of votes were.
