First Lady Seeks to Reignite Flame for President
From a CNN online news story:
http://www.cnn.com/2012/09/04/politics/michelle-obama-speech/index.html?hpt=hp_inthenews
If you did not see Michelle Obama deliver her speech last night, you can watch it in full on CNN.com It is amazing what women are doing...
The first lady is known as a warm, open woman whose latest favorable numbers in a CNN/ORC International poll hit 65%. Obama campaign officials describe her as the "most popular political figure in America."
Just four years ago, she was being portrayed as an Afro-sporting, machine gun-toting, Angela Davis figure fist-bumping her husband in a cartoon on the cover of the New Yorker.
She's built her likeable reputation by tackling such issues as childhood obesity with her "Let's Move!" campaign, holding several high-profile events at the White House and appearing in public service announcements to encourage children and their parents to maintain an active lifestyle. She also started a vegetable garden on the grounds of the executive mansion.
