Fair minded people even see her speech as an extremely poor case of sour grapes. That creature Michelle realizes her time is almost up now and we are all seeing the real Michelle "For the first time I'm proud of my country" Obama letting it all out and pulling no punches.
She's a piece of garbage that makes me embarrassed for America.
Nothing but a crutch you use.
Be all, end all , cover all.
Just throw it out there.
Crutch? She's got degrees from two Ivies and she's also the first lady...she doesn't need a crutch. Therefore, I don't need a crutch to call you out in your lame attempt to talk around race while being blatantly false in your premise.
So yeah...I threw it out there. It stuck by the way. She said nothing wrong in her speech. You folks are just butthurt because in your minds, she's not allowed to discuss racial issues as they've pertained to her.
She's supposed to say "white folks all love you and you'll never face any racism or marginalization because you're black. It'll all be honky dory. You know....Because we don't wanna offend Bluesjuke."

Did you read your article, First of All, President Obama being president for 6 years doesnt change decades of neglect, and to add on, he ony had control of the legislature for 2 of those years. second one of the arguments this link makes is about school choice. sorry, that actually does more harm than good. School choice gives you an opinion, but its like a gun with no bullets. Its just an empty gesture unless someone is willing to bus all those kids to those new schools on the other side of town.
Further more, black kids in the inner city of BLUE STATES are doing far better than black people in the inner city of RED states. And to reiterate that point, the majority of black people in this country dont live in blue states, nor do they live in what many of you would call major cities. There are more black people in Georgia than in California. Think about that for a second.

Doing better? Like in Baltimore? Ferguson? Detroit?
The way affirmative action works, she may have gotten into those school in part due to her race. But if she graduated, she most certainly earned her degrees. If she didn't belong, she would have flunked out, right? Do you even know her college grades? Just a guess?
She did nothing to improve race relations, which have steadily gone downhill the past few years.
Right, race relations in the US were great until the Obamas came along.
New York in the 1980s or Boston in the 1970s or Birmingham or Mississippi in the 1960s were all shining beacons of racial harmony...

And her husband, make no mistake about it. Barrack milked AA his whole life all the way into the White House.
Hmmmm, interesting. I would bet any kind of money that you wouldn't have graduated magna c um laude from Harvard Law, while serving as President of Law Review. Law school tests are graded on a blind basis, so no one other than a computer knows to whom a test number belongs. So, being an AA wouldn't help there. Professor Laurence Tribe, the consensus #1 expert on Constitutional Law in the nation, said Obama was "the best student I ever had." I know this doesn't fit a narrative, but with those credentials anyone (and I mean anyone) could waltz into ANY job in this country.
