Michelle Obama has revealed her husband 'barely got his work done' and instead 'fooled around' during high school.
The First Lady urged college pupils to work hard citing it was 'never too late' to do well as she opened up about Barack Obama's past in a candid interview.
She also revealed she got better grades than the U.S. President.
Speaking on The Real Daytime talk show, she said: 'Barack fooled around in high school. He's said it, he didn't take school seriously.
'He barely got his work done. He was a bum.'
The President, who majored in political science, worked in law for 12 years before being inaugurated in 2009. He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize the same year.
His wife's comments came as he announced a ban on solitary confinement for juveniles in prison.
The decision, which will affect around 10,000 inmates, will also protect prisoners who commit 'low-level infractions'.
The President said he made the change due to the heartbreaking and lasting psychological consequences of the punishment.
Obama became the first president to visit a federal prison in July. He is focusing on reforming the criminal justice system in his last term.

He was a bum, who still got into an Ivy League college. Gee, I wonder what his saving attribute was with the admissions officer?

Claimed he was a foreign exchange student.

He kept trying and trying to score with the male athletes. When that didn’t work he went downtown to hang about on curbsides and in homosexual bars trying desperately for a one night stand.
When he wasn’t doing this he was sucking on pot and snorting cocaine with money he made from the occasional tryst. In short, he was being molded into the very same type of candidate that Democrats and socialists lust after: a worthless specimen that had no morals.

He hasn’t progressed much, except that now “fooling around” = golf.

Well, that's interesting (I already knew he was a slacker though, he's just the front for those intent upon destroying the US and the West). I hope the stress is getting to Moochelle, or she's getting giddy at the idea of leaving the pressures of having to appear classy and unbiased as First Lady as the time to leave draws nigh, and starts mouthing off the truth more and more. Won't change the destruction they've wreaked upon us, but I would love to have a good finger-pointing laugh at all those who bought into their lying act.Makes me kind of have a feeling of kinship with those men on the Titanic who went out in full black tie, with a whiskey in hand and a witty quip on their lips.

So we can officially declare the “light worker” and “smartest guy in the room” propaganda dead?
