MICHELLE OBAMA: I COULDN'T FEED MY KIDS RIGHT–EVEN WITH A HARVARD DEGREE
Breitbart Big Government ^ | 16 Jun 2014 | by CHARLIE SPIERING

In an interview with MSN.com, First Lady Michelle Obama explained she used to struggle to feed her kids right—even though she received an education from Harvard and Princeton.

“Before coming to the White House, I struggled, as a working parent with a traveling, busy husband, to figure out how to feed my kids healthy, and I didn’t get it right,” she explained, sharing a story about her children’s doctor who pulled her aside to talk about her family diet.

“I thought to myself, if a Princeton and Harvard-educated professional woman doesn’t know how to adequately feed her kids, then what are other parents going through who don’t have access to the information I have?” she recalled.

Her personal struggle helped her launch her mission to address childhood obesity, she explains, especially passing a law requiring schools to provide healthier meals for kids.

The First Lady recommended that schools make decisions for children because their parents struggle to feed their children well.

Sounds more like a problem being too priviledged.

My mother had an 8th grade education and managed to feed 3 kids with more than adequate nutritional food, even during times of rather meager finances.

Moochele sounds like she is trying to one-up Hillary's sad tale of depravation when the Clintons left the White House.

Then there was Barry's tale of woe and depravation while he was growing up in Hawaii -- and attending one of the most exclusive private schools in the nation.

how about a former lawyer (never practiced) who had to ‘voluntarily surrender’ her license before she got disbarred ?

another totally unaccomplished product of affirmative action that thinks she knows more than she really does. (is it ok to call the first manlady ‘she’ ?)

Presumably these much vaunted edifices of education required their students speak grammatically correct English. Perhaps, just perhaps, the fault is not the in the education, but in the student.

A Harvard degree makes you a demi-god.

Unless you got it through affirmative action. Then you still have an IQ of 85. Maybe less.

She was picked by Jarret the Handler to be 0’s wife so that he could at least give the appearance of looking heretosexual and could enter the Game of Thrones. Then he was married and sent off packing to a Black Liberation Theology church which cloaked itself as a “Christian”. After that the turkey baster was applied and out popped two children. Having laid the foundation to look like a normal Christian family he could then enter the race after the PC pins we’re set in place with enough brown skins that had poured over the border to swing the vote, America had been hip hopisized and white women worshipped certain anatomical parts of the black male; all to get their votes. The rest is history.

You can never satisfy an addiction. It’s not how much they need; it’s how much they want and how much they can take away from you.

My mother fed our family of 11 properly, as she had learned from her mother. My dear late mother did not go past 10th grade because her family was poor, and she needed to go to work. I have no idea how much education my grandmother had, although I know that her father taught her to read.

Perhaps an affirmative action education and getting lots of passes on personal responsibility have deprived the FLARDUS of learning real life skills

She had a $300,000 no-show job with a hospital and Barak wrote two books prior to going to the white house; and she struggled with bills?
