Michelle Obama accused of Separatism

Here we go again, the media always looking for a way to conjure up turbulence. Now that Palin is out the way  for a while, President Barack Obama's wife Michelle Obama is the new target in motion.

In 1985, Michelle Robinson her maiden name at that time wrote a thesis at Princeton University. She titled it, Princeton-Educated Blacks and the Black Community. Her thesis has made major headline news all over the internet, newspapers, political news, talk radio shows and through conversations of others.

In her own words:
"My experiences at Princeton have made me far more aware of my blackness than ever before" "I have found that at Princeton, no matter how liberal and open-minded some of my white professors and classmates try to be towards me. I sometimes feel like a visitor on campus; as if I really don't belong. Regardless of the circumstances under which I interact with whites at Princeton, it often seems as if to them, I will always be black first and a student second."

Is Michelle too black for white America or not black enough for America/ Why was the thesis unavailable for reading until after the presidential election? Those are just a few questions circulating in reference to her thesis.

During a previous speech Michelle has also stated, "For the first time in my adult lifetime, I am really proud of my country." That statement also brought about negative criticism and concern, forcing her to explain the comment.

For me all of this is ridiculous. What does her thesis she wrote 23 years ago have to do with right now and Barack Obama? Some people say she is bringing Obama down with her thesis and overwhelming comments. I have listened to Michelle and what I see is a black woman who proved that just because she's black doesn't mean she's not capable of starting from the bottom and working her way to the top. Her father worked and her mother took care of home, but she didn't consider herself no better or no worse than anyone else. My problem is why everytime someone writes or speaks the truth, they're wrong. She basically wrote about her experiences and observances at Princeton Univesity. As far as her saying now she loves her country, I took it as since black people,especially women are looked down upon and discriminated against, she's proud of the woman she became. She graduated from a predominately white University to prove she could do anything she wanted to do. Black people are outnumbered no matter what they do or try to achieve, and they are unaccepted to those who think they are more superior. My youngest sister recently gradutated form University of Minnesota majoring in Mortuary Science. She was the only black person who graduated in that field, and she was awarded student of the year. So anything is possible
