she reflects that in her manner of dress too (mixing expensive items with cheap items). Me like. Ann? I don't despise her but she makes a fool out herself every time she attempts to relate to real people - she just doesn't know any better.

"Michelle is both regal and approachable", truly she is and that is something you just can't fake.

We don't deserve her ... but it's convincing testimony to Barack's character that she has given him her highest possible endorsement. I was a high school senior when 'Camelot' began ... and find today's First Family significantly more appealing personally. I can see myself asking for a hug from each and every Obama ... but, despite my admiration for JFK, hugging him never crossed my mind.

She makes Ann Romney with her "you people" comments and Willard with his insults at the Olympics look like, I don't know, spoiled rich brats.
