What Michelle Obama Saw in Obama
by Chance Kelsey on Sunday, December 6, 2009
There is no doubt that Michelle Obama is one of the luckiest black women in the world. She is married to Barack Obama an intelligent, Ivy League educated, politician who became president, and handsome man. He is one of the most famous men in the world, and thus making Michelle and their two daughters very famous also.
Michelle and Barack started dating in the late 1980s and have been together ever since. Michelle recognized something in Barack Obama that many black women would have over looked. How many black women would have given Barack a chance to date them?
Many of them would have seen him as to non black in mannerism, not enough black culture, not very masculine, and geeky. But Michelle saw something deeper in him; Barack asked her out, she accepted, and they started dating regularly, and then got married.
Yes some educated black women would have given Barack a chance to date them but many wouldn’t have. Michelle saw something deeper and she is now reaping the rewards of her decision.
