My take on all this is that we are witnessing the first afirmative action presidential campaign in history. We have two candidates who got to where they are because of gender and race, not for anything they have done, which is the definition of affirmative action.
Obama’s wife was whining about her negative experience at university - my take is she also is an affirmative action product. She got into Yale, or whatever ivy leage school it was, because of her gender and race and soon found herself unable to keep up academically and in general had a miserable experience knowing she shouldn’t be there. Thomas Sowell has written about this and I suspect Michelle Obama is a perfexct example of affirmative action failing, once again.
Now we have the possiblility of having the first president of the US a product of affirmative action...GOD help us if this comes to pass.
You’re right, except that it was Princeton she was whining about in what passed for a thesis. Now she has a job paying over $300,000 a year doing “community outreach” for Chicago hospitals. Affirmative action all the way.
