Just saw Michelle Obama speak.
While I am undecided on who to support, I was impressed with Michelle Obama. She's energetic and able to balance her career, community service, her family, and Barack's campaign extremely well. For example, she talked about keeping her out of town trips to "same day" -- so she can be with her kids in the evening.
Also, she definitely made me think differently about Barack's "lack of experience". Points: a) Experience in Washington is not necessarily a good thing. It can make you take things for granted and abuse power -- look at current administration. b) You should consider Barack's "outside of Washington" experience as well before declaring him inexperienced.

Quoted: "a country’s health can’t be measured simply by its economic output. That output, he said, “counts special locks for our doors and the jails for those who break them” but not “the health of our children, the quality of their education or the joy of their play.” .... The current concerns about the state of the planet, he said, required something of a paradigm shift for economics. If we don’t make serious changes soon, probably in the next 10 or 15 years, we may find that it’s too late. - mohit - 6 days ago1 FaverViewed: 2 Times
