Gina girl, why would you bring a negative into something that was meant to be an inspiration?!
You missed the meat of the entire speech. Scripted or not the delivery was magnificent. How dare you call to question the brilliance of the first first black lady!

Although the soul of the speech was intended for all Americans a large portion was really about the forgotten and the over looked.
Hell, all people united for the greater good was at the core of that speech!

With that said, girl, GO SIT DOWN! Have you heard that song? If not, then you need to hear it.

Dawm it! Why does it have to one in every crowd?!

@ Gina- many of us are well aware of the Chappaquiddick incident that happened years ago. However it was not voluntary manslaughter on Kennedy’s part– did you revisit the final ruling or just chose to ignore it?

Switching back to the present(2008)of course some of her speech may have been scripted, but not unlike any other political speech. Bottom line- Michelle did a fantastic job delivering and touching the hearts of pro-Democratic America. We want to win this election.

I beg to differ – Obama and Kennedy are in no way shape or form trying to give the impression they are beyond reproach. They are offering leadership and guidance to a country that’s well overdue for change. Everybody and their grandma is aware of one or two alleged Kennedy scandal, so get over it. At the end of the day, the Kennedys remain a strong family and the Obamas are not deterred by individuals that think like you.

Michelle is a good speaker, but the content of her speech seemed very scripted, and probably written by a crack team of speech writers. I’m sure she rehearsed it for several days. The speech said all the right things, but was hardly recognizable from her unscripted words spoken over several years … like “America is a mean country’ … ‘In my adult life, I’ve never been proud to be an American until now” … and does not reflect her many years as the follower of Jeremiah Wright’s black liberation philosophy … which she also exposed her young daughters to for several years … hardly the typical American family that they’re now trying to package and sell to the Amerian people. Michele’s speech more accurately resembles an expedient attempt at damage control by way of an immediate severe, and not very believable magical massive makeover. Furthermore, Barack and Teddy, who would like you to believe they are above reproach, have been elevated to sacred cow status. Sorry about Ted Kennedy’s illness, but Mary Joe Kopechne’s life was snuffed out at age 29 … so, you might want to revisit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Jo_Kopechne

Go Michelle -
You make all American women proud. And what a great role model for her girls and all Americans.
I hope with all my heart that she helps him to win this election!

I was impressed with Michelle and Ed Kennedy. Hopefully the democratic spirit and votes take us all the way to the White House and in the Oval Office.
