My Evening with Michelle Obama (Keep a bag handy. You're going to need a bigger bag)
American Thinker ^ | Dec. 17, 2022 | Joel Gilbert

Posted on 12/17/2022 6:18:35 AM PST by Michael.SF.

I attended Michelle Obama’s final book release event this week in Los Angeles at sold-out YouTube Theater. Her celebrity interviewer was Oprah Winfrey. This evening was ostensibly produced to promote Michelle’s new book, The Light We Carry. In fact, it was just another “under the radar” 2024 presidential campaign event for Michelle.

I arrived two hours early and saw thousands of excited Michelle Obama fans already waiting in line to get in. The vibe was clearly that of a campaign rally. At one hour until showtime, the crowd was let in and swarmed Michelle’s tour merchandise and book sales kiosks, forking out money for swag and books.

Finally, a video introduction was shown on the big screen, narrated by Michelle. The crowd oohed and ahead at photos of Michelle and Barack while she described her feel-good messages about her previous Becoming book tour

. The idea of a co-presidency came as news only to those who don’t pay attention, which was just about all of the audience. In fact, in 2008 Michelle was the co-candidate with Barack. She crisscrossed the country making fiery political speeches to huge crowds for months, stating what she and Barack were focused on what they would do in office. It was only when Michelle went too far over the top with her comment, “For the first time in my life I’m proud of my country,” that the public backlash required a new strategy. That strategy was to put Michelle into the background with the laughable excuse “Michelle hates politics.” This strategy successfully cast the highly political Michelle Obama as just another First Lady, a role that continues to this day. The media choose not to notice that she is even more instinctively eloquent, authentic, and political than her husband.

Make no mistake, she is running in '24. Biden will be easily pushed out, but it will be fun to see how they dump Harris.

An angry, American hating , no class having, menopausal fat chick as POTUS.

I would prefer live in the wasteland like in Road Warrior.

ABW strikes again? Or is it NBW.... With today’s “subjects” voting and not having a clue about much of anything, think warnok and festermun, branDUHn, carmela, schiff-4-brains, max watereddown........ and possibilities are there. 🤮

Please! No pics of that ungrateful, fat and lazy beast in a canoe as it is still too early to vomit.

Good to hear she’s released her final book. Book store shelves are overflowing with her crap and their shelves are looking like dollar store bargain bins.

I don’t see her running at all. She’s living a fabulous life. No way Obama wants to go back to DC & be a political spouse. I say no way.

LOL. I got half-way through it, paused and then went back.

The author is obviously not a fan of Michelle.

If (s)he’s elected, we still will have never had a female President.

She may run because of all the perks and attention a candidate gets. Good way to raise campaign funds to live off.
