HuThe institution made no effort to reach out to me -- a bright and promising student in their midst

Hubris is right, my friend. My son, who is totally blind, graduated 8th in his class of over 300. He was a leader in school, VP of the student council, and achieved much. The local college, only 5 doors away from us as we lived on a street adjoining the campus, never contacted him. Neither did Penn State which had an extension only 1 mile away. It was not an issue. We never felt he was overlooked. He went on to get into Swarthmore on several scholarships and then onto get his Master's Degree and no college reached out to him for that either.

Who does Michelle think she is? Certainly not better than my son. Should he complain too? What a pouting, bitter, angry ecomaniac she is.

These two in the WH are always bringing up their angry memories and seem to hold grudges on somethings that no one else is bothered by. Why? Just because she feels slighted because of her skin color? Then tell me why did her husband, who is half white, appeal to her if she detests whites so much? And why doesn't he claim to be what he really is...bi-racial, and not African/American. Because, it seems, they want to hold onto anger and create more friction.
