Who is Michelle Obama?
Thursday November 13, 2008
Michelle Obama, wife of Barack Obama, is more than just the spouse of the next president of the United States. In fact, she is a success in her own right. Her life demonstrates that in America anything is possible with hard work and determination.

Michelle, I’m so proud of you as an Intelligent, Professional and Proud African American Lady. You are awesome and I give a high 10 not a high 5. I want to say, Go girl.
Michelle is defiantly a class act!
The progress that Barack & Michelle Obama are making towards the White House is an indication of the progress made by Africa Americans in US politics and society. That progress is all the more impressive when viewed in the context of African American troops in the American Revolutionary War.
I have been reading a fascinating book by Stephen Clarkson,”Patriot’s Reward” (published last year by Peter E. Randall Publishers). Set in America in the latter half of the 1700s, Patriot’s Reward follows the adventures of Will Clarkson, a young African enslaved in New Hampshire, who hates living in bondage and yearns for the same freedoms that his white owners battle for. He fights with distinction in the American Revolution.
Written by a descendent of the slave-owning family that once kept Will Clarkson as property, Patriot’s Reward is a profoundly involving novel about an African-American ripped from his original culture who fiercely persevered and adapted to his new culture.
Finally, with this presidential election, Will’s reward has come about.
thanks very much barack i wish you a lot of confidence!
