I have never met Michelle Obama, nor do I ever expect to. I would love to meet her, she seems like a pretty cool lady. A (very) quick web search reveals some pretty impressive facts.
*graduate of Princeton
*went to Harvard Law
*associate dean of student services at University of Chicago
*mother of two
Overall, Michelle Obama seems like one kick ass woman. Strong, you know? So, why does everyone obsess about her CLOTHES? Yes, she is a good-looking woman. Yes, she has great fashion sense. Yes, I like this about her. But, can we talk about something else now? Like, oh I don't know, how intelligent she is? What she does on a daily basis, other than choosing clothes for her next photo-op? I have great confidence that Michelle Obama does much more in a day than look good (ok, great) in chic attire. We have a strong, intelligent woman in the white house, can we please discuss other aspects of her life than just her outward appearance? Please? I have a daughter to raise and the First Lady would be a great role model for my daughter if we, as a society, can allow Michelle to be a real woman, not a cardboard cutout.
