If Michelle “affirmative action hire at a big law firm that she was unqualified for but for the business/influence of her rising hubby-politico” Obama was a better student, more capable, etc. than Zero ... well, it kind of confirms everything we’ve long suspected about Barry “Golden Liberal Child” Obama, who was carried on the backs of smarter leftists every step of the way, because, well, being so “clean cut and well spoken” (as his future Vice President commented), he would be their chosen “vessel” for turning America into a Marxist Socialist paradise....
...you got to wonder about the blindness of morons like this professor, because he can’e even see that he is actually CONFIRMING the worst criticisms of his idols with such crap.
Kind of like the black author who called Bill Clinton “The First Black President”. As I said at the time on these same FR pages, if I were an African American I would have been OUTRAGED at this SLANDER of African Americans, because by saying so she was in fact (unintentionally, of course) slandering American black men with the worst traditional racist slanders one could come up with ...
Still not sure what I mean by that? Think about all of the behaviors that SLick Willy was quite and very CREDIBLY accused of over the years:
1. Oversexed;
2. Cocaine sniffing;
3. Sexual criminal (Rapist)
4. Liar;
5. Thief and bribe-receiver;
6. Out-of-control appetites and impulses
Every single characteristic above can be pulled from the most racist KKK literature of the late 1890s about American black men, and here was Toni Morisson (albeit unwittingly) throwing the same stereotypical canards and generalizations abotu black men by associating them with a white man (Slick) who had a PROVEN history of such actions!
The stupidity, navel gazing and obliviousness of liberals will never cease to amaze me, if I live to be 100 years old!
She got the UChicago job because Obama was in Illinois politics and expected to rise.
She got the law firm job earlier -- before she met Obama.
Affirmative action was likely a factor, but not political influence.

It sounds like the professor is a little ambivalent about Obama.
If Barack was an academic highflyer at Harvard Law, the professor -- who wants to praise Obama -- might have found him to be kind of a pain, so he puts in a good word for Michelle who was at least quieter and not as pushy.
He doesn't necessarily mean that she was a genius, just that she didn't get on his nerves.
IIRC (someone confirm or prove me wrong please)
