At a period where the civilized world and all advocates of
fairness are celebrating the beginning of racial harmony and balance, I am
partially saddened at the fact that we may lose the grand price because of
Michelle Obama. It is not my intention to put down the role of women in
politics, but unlike other potential “first spouses”, Michelle is too vocal and
too involved openly.
It is true that Bill Clinton, as a former President, is
helping to campaign for his wife, but like Cindy McCain, he knows how to let
Hillary be the star of her show. On TV, I always see Bill and Cindy behind the
Presidential candidates or beside. They do not interrupt during interviews to
steal the candidate’s questions. On stage, they stand aside, sometimes with
their children, to let the candidate handle his or her business. Michelle Obama
does not understand this. It appears that she is the stereotypical “strong
Black woman” who must be strong at all times. Strength is good, but it must be
guided by wisdom. She is usually in front of Obama and appears to be taking the
lead when greeting the audience. Someone who is close enough to her needs to
tell her to sit back a little bit and talk less.
I saw this because Fox News and the Republican company I
worked for during the last election was able to use John Kerry’s wife against
him. It is obvious that nothing will stick on Obama, so they will turn to the
weakest link. It will not be Rev. Wright or Father Pfleger, but Michelle. Like
in the case of Kerry, they will begin to ask in TV advertise who the real
president will be, if Obama is elected. Some will question the competence of
Obama leading America, when it is obvious that Micelle tends to lead openly in
the campaigns. Michelle appears to be too involved that we can conclude that
whatever she says or do can justifiably be part of Obama’s campaign, unlike
Cindy McCain. I am a little worried, and I do not want the Christian and
traditional undecided voters to see this as a justified weakness on the part of
Obama when Fox News and the Republicans start focusing on Michelle as a
quicksand to sink Obama.
