Michelle Obama on the View

ASSI - Today Michelle Obama served as the sixth cost host on the view. Mrs. Obama was personable, funny, and looked beautiful. She is a first class act who was graceful and gracious and demonstrated that she can hold her own in any forum or environment, so bring on the nay- sayers. Michelle truly understands her functions as a wife and mother. She was sure to give the ladies dap that she so kindly referred to as the fist bump a fist to fist greetings something she learned from the young people working on her husband's campaign. She even sympathized with Elizabeth who made a eating schedule listing the foods her son Taylor can eat. The chart is for her husband and in-laws to follow while the show is taping in Las Vegas. Michelle shared with viewers that she has a personal designer who dresses her but the Black and White print dress she wore on the show was purchased off the rack at the Black/White Market that is located in most local malls. Sherri complimented Mrs. Obama on her figure, Whoopi celebrated the fact that Michelle is an articulate dark skin Black Woman who is shedding a different light on how Black Women are perceived. Barbara asked her if she thinks that Hilary Clinton should be her husband's running mate and she responded diplomatically, "I think the person who receives the nomination should pick their own running mate." According to Michelle, she is simply pleased that she is not part of the process. Joy asked if they could have Obama back on the show and her response was, "Absolutely." Many questions were asked about the media scrutiny regarding her statement about being really proud for the first time in her adult life. Whoopi made sure the clip of her speech was shown that demonstrated how the media purposely left out the word "Really" when the played her speech over and over again in an attempt to criticize her. The ladies discussed divesity amongs many topics and Michelle had an intelligent answer for every question asked. As I see it she was a delightful addition to the cost host table.
