The Gift that Keeps Giving: Angry Michelle O
2008-04-16
"There's a lot of people talking about elitism and all of that. But let me tell you who me and Barack are, so that you are not confused. Yeah, I went to Princeton and Harvard, but the lens through which I see the world is the lens that I grew up with. I am the product of a working-class upbringing. I grew up on the South Side of Chicago in a working-class community. I want people to know when they look at me, to be clear that they see what an investment in public education can look like."

#5  One always places oneself at the end of the list even yet, Procopius2k. When the group is the subject of the sentence, it is indeed "x, y, z, and I." "Me" is only used when one is the object, as in, "Between you and me." Mrs. Obama somehow managed to avoid getting a proper education up there at Princeton and Harvard, despite acquiring an esquire after her name.

#3  TOPIX US NEWS > THE BATTLE TO KEEP ANCIENT EGYPT BLACK. Black prof argues National Geographic article is racist and dubious as per belief that most of Egypt's Pharoahs-Rulers were black - ROME also had a black Emperor, hence made more sense to write an article denoting Roma's Black Emperors since most in Rome were white, NOT BLACK AS IN EGYPT.

#2  Does anyone know the 'real' background of 'Michelle O'?

According to this Newsweek Article she attended Princeton because of Affirmative Action and (according to a campaign spokeswoman) because her brother attended as a scholar athlete (presumable a scolarship).

#1  But let me tell you who me and Barack are..Yeah, I went to Princeton and Harvard..

Back in my very old days, one places oneself after the other person so it would be Barack and I/me. Did she go on athletic scholarship?
