Michelle Obama Solidifies Her Role in the Election
By MONICA LANGLEY
February 11, 2008
 

&lt;blockquote&gt;"In her senior thesis in 1985, Mrs. Obama wrote that her college experience &lt;b&gt;"made me far more aware of my 'Blackness' "&lt;/b&gt; than ever before, adding,&lt;b&gt; "I will always be Black first and a student second" &lt;/b&gt;on campus. At Harvard Law, Mrs. Obama, involved in the Black Law Students Association, pushed hard to improve the low numbers of African-American faculty and students."&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt; "We got into big debates on the condition of black folks in America," says Harvard classmate Verna Williams. &lt;b&gt;"She's got a temper."&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

		<description>Do any of you know of any charitable organizations that Michelle has 'given' her time without being paid for it?

I have done hours of research, next to NOTHING is mentioned regarding Michelle's childhood, or if she ever attended church before Trinity. It's as if her whole life started just before she went to Princeton. 

Very interesting.</description>

YOU WRITE:.... "Cindy McCain’s business experience? She inherited her money."

It takes an intelligent woman to keep what she has inherited.  Cindy has also done extensive work in her charitable organizations.

&lt;b&gt;About Cindy McCain

As an advocate for children's health care needs, &lt;b&gt;Cindy founded and ran the American Voluntary Medical Team &lt;/b&gt;(AVMT) from 1988 to 1995. &lt;b&gt;AVMT provided emergency medical and surgical care to impoverished children throughout the world.&lt;/b&gt; Cindy &lt;b&gt;led 55 medical missions to third world and war-torn countries during AVMT's seven years of existence.&lt;/b&gt; On one of those missions, &lt;b&gt;Mother Teresa convinced Cindy&lt;/b&gt; to take two babies in need of medical attention to the United States. &lt;b&gt;One of those babies is now their adopted daughter, 16-year-old Bridget McCain. &lt;/b&gt;


In recent years, three organizations in particular have been the subject of her international focus: &lt;b&gt;HALO, Operation Smile, and CARE.&lt;/b&gt;


&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.johnmccain.com/about/Cindy.htm" rel="nofollow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;About CIndy McCain&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

In addition to her humanitarian work, Cindy is the chairman of her family's business, Hensley &#38; Company, which is one of the largest Anheuser-Busch distributors in the nation. 

Her formal education includes an undergraduate degree in Education and a Master's in Special Education from the University of Southern California. As a student, &lt;b&gt;Cindy participated in pilot programs testing Movement Therapy, which is now a widely accepted standard for working with severely disabled children.&lt;/b&gt; After receiving her degrees from USC, she began her teaching career at Agua Fria High School in Arizona where she continued her work with disabled children. 

Cindy resides in Phoenix with her husband, U.S. Senator John McCain. Together, they have four children: Meghan, Jack, Jimmy, and Bridget.

&lt;blockquote&gt;(The link above will give you the &lt;b&gt;FULL PICTURE of Cindy McCain's UNSELFISH caring and giving&lt;/b&gt;)&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>Mrs Obama--for all her talk about hardships then and now-- grew up to earn good degrees from Ivy League universities. She is a well-paid hospital executive. Her husband was the abandoned son of a deadbeat Kenyan daddy; Barack's nutty white gal single mom raised him.
In a way if the Obamas do get into the WH will that not severely impair the grievance industry and its victimocrat advocates in the Dem party, NAACP etc etc??</description>

		<description>"Obama’s wife is no asset to his campaign"

No she isn't.  I wonder how many people have read what she has written  or paid attention to what she has said -- realizing the seriousness of her remarks, without covering them up with  whipped cream and sprinkles.</description>

		<description>Obama's wife is no asset to his campaign.  I haven't seen much of McCain's wife (perhaps because has been ignoring the GOP while they work to deify Obama for the unwashed masses - they'll get into full attack mode on the GOP soon)</description>

She inherited her money.

Michelle Obama is perfectly cordial?

I wouldn't want to cross her.</description>

		<description>Cindy McCain is an ideal choice with her business experience.  While I'm sure Michelle Obama is perfectly cordial, she just can't keep her foot out of her mouth.</description>
