Maybe MichelleObama was the one who was prejudiced all along? Commentary by cwtremo:
Former first lady Michelle Obama made the ridiculous claim last week that she always wanted to wear braids in the White House but didn't because she thought the country would not accept it. This nonsensical claim reveals more about the former first lady's prejudices about white people than the reality of the situation.
Barack Obama won two presidential elections with relative ease. He received 52.9% of the votes in 2008, the highest percentage a candidate received since 1988 and the fifth highest since 1960. He received more votes than any other presidential candidate in history in 2008 . While she may try to blame the country's lack of tolerance, in reality, it was Michelle's feelings about white people that caused this reluctance.
Plus, consider what was going on during Obama's first term. Islamic terrorism was spreading. The country was going through its worst financial crisis since the Depression. People were worried that their 401 and savings accounts were gone forever. Michelle's hairstyles were the least of their concerns.
