I will say now that I hardly care about what the presidential candidate wrote as a college student, unless he is espousing the same notions today.

The college writings of the “1st lady”? It looks petty even asking — and we just gave the Obama campaign a coup by insisting it was important, because now they freely offered the paper, so we look childish and petty.

I don’t know much about the political game, and it scares me how little some others who are supposed to understand the game seem to understand it sometimes.

This is very much like Hillary making a deal out of what Obama said in a primary school paper about wanting to be President (which in my opinion was the beginning of the end of her campaign, although it wasn’t seen that way at the time).

Good point.

But as your post pointed out, the real question is: Has she progressed past that mindset since her college days? Is she espousing the same notions today? And from what I’ve seen so far, the answer appears to be Yes.

So seen in that light, the thesis offers a glimpse into the history of that mindset.

I think there are many people who will agree with you. However, Michelle Obama opened the door with a very revealing statement about her sentiments toward this country. A country that has been very good to her.

She's not acting like a friend.
