The true nature of a person is usually impossible to identify but clues can be found that reveal some of the innermost secrets of a person. The commencement address by Michelle Obama at Tuskegee University provided several clues. It’s not pretty.
Sporting designer clothes, Michelle ranted how unfair her life is because of the color of her skin and or the color of the skins of other people.
“In a message that smacked of thin-skinned ungratefulness and hostility, Obama complained about the emotional toll she’s endured as America’s first black first lady. If Mrs. Obama had taken the time to read Booker T.’s autobiography, Up from Slavery, she would have known that stirring up racial animosity is an approach the author shunned.
“Instead of encouraging the graduates with talk of the great strides America has made in the area of race, Michelle used the Tuskegee podium as a soapbox to grumble and complain. At a graduation ceremony where the keynote speech is supposed to inspire students, Princeton graduate and Harvard Law School alumni Michelle Obama took a cue from her narcissistic husband and made it all about Michelle:
“And over the years, folks have used plenty of interesting words to describe me. One said I exhibited ‘a little bit of uppity-ism.’ Another noted that I was one of my husband’s ‘cronies of color.’ Cable news once charmingly referred to me as ‘Obama’s Baby Mama.’
“Because after all, everyone knows that closets full of haute couture (like the $12,000 Carolina Herrera gown), numerous multimillion dollar vacations, fawning celebrity friends, international fame and fortune, and political power are all examples of the “sting of daily slights” that are very “heavy burden[s] to carry.”
