Beyonce praises Michelle Obama in new campaign ad. Will that win votes? (Don't read while eating)

Beyonce is the star of President Obama’s latest campaign ad. In the spot – released online Monday – the singer reads a letter she wrote in April that praises First Lady Michelle Obama.

In the letter Beyonce praises Mrs. Obama as “the ultimate example of a truly strong African-American woman”.

“No matter the pressure and the stress of being under the microscope she’s humble, loving and sincere. . . she builds and nurtures her family while also looking out for so many millions in so many ways,” says the Grammy-winning performer.

How did the campaign get Beyonce to do this? It wasn’t hard, apparently – she and the First Lady have had a mutual admiration society for some time. Beyonce performed at the presidential inauguration in 2009. Michelle took daughters Malia and Sasha to see a Beyonce concert earlier this year, and in May the First Lady told People magazine that if she could be anyone else, it would be You Know Who.

“Gosh if I had some gift I’d be Beyonce, I’d be some great singer,” said FLOTUS....

How does Mrs. Obama "look out for so many millions in so many ways" or whatever she said? I didn't realize this was Romania or North Korea.

Would Beyonce be making this ad if Manchelle was not black and if Bozo was not perceived to be blacK? No need to respond to the question. We already know the answer.

It is a safe bet Beyonce does not know who Victor Davis Hanson is, let alone read today's piece in PJ Media “Beware the Ides of October”.

That Michelle Obama she described could be just an alien impostor.

Don't you know, 2ndDivisionVet, sir, we've been under Kim Jong Obama since Jan 2009?

The only voters who possibly would be swayed by Beyonce are black women, and if Obama et al believe they have to convince black women to vote for Obama, they must be very nervous about this election.

If it weren’t for the media and Hollywood propping him up, his numbers would be in the toilet. He can’t go it alone. He has to have big names carrying him. Expect free concerts to be performed by the usual suspects.

I'm sorry, but I wouldn't recognize a Beyonce song on the radio if you paid me. The main reason why Beyonce is considered beautiful is because she has light skin and white features.

I looked at this dress and for a second I didn't realize what I was seeing and went on a Rorschach ink blob mind warp thinking the black was on the dress



I guess it's just been that kind of day.

That was my response about her shirt. I thought it was two black people putting their legs together holding up lighted bomb in the middle.

I was shocked. And then it registered what I was seeing.

It looks like two queer space aliens holding hands and carrying something.

It’s an attempt at subliminal mind control - all your money belongs to us ;-)
