Michelle Obama gave the kind of intimate, emotional endorsement only a wife could give in her headlining speech kicking off the Democratic National Convention on Monday night. She recalled her husband, Barack Obama, as a nervous new dad, before the hype and hoopla of his life on the national stage, and said he has not been changed by politics. "He's the same man who drove me and our new baby daughter home from the hospital 10 years ago this summer," said Michelle, "inching along at a snail's pace, peering anxiously at us in the rearview mirror, feeling the whole weight of her future in his hands ... [He was] determined to give her what he never had, the affirming embrace of a father's love." Her voice caught with emotion and she sniffed several times. At the start of a four-day gathering that will culminate in her husband receiving the Democratic nomination for president, Michelle, 44, remembered the long, hard-fought primary season. "After all that's happened these past 19 months, see, the Barack Obama I know today is the same man I fell in love with 19 years ago." Michelle Obama is an American lawyer and was born and grew up on the South Side of Chicago and graduated from Princeton University and Harvard Law School. Seeing Michelle in the CNN news, I find her strong and full of determination. She was always there to support Mr. Barrack candidacy. Whoever wins, I do hope they will be a good and productive leader in their country. Goodluck!!!
