Many Americans are counting the days until President Obama and his wife Michelle leave the White House, and the first lady may be among them.
Delivering the commencement speech for the City College in New York on Friday, she turned the graduation speech into a racial rallying cry.
She even managed to take shots at presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump along the way.
Michelle told the graduates that they ought to beware of people who want to “build up walls to keep people out” and that the “story” of America is the story of immigrants.
“It’s the story that I witness every single day,” she said, “when I wake up in a house that was built by slaves

Those look like slave owner boots.

May explain a lot about Barack.
Wookie logic!

Yes, but she is no slave and she loved moving in.
There are 2 Piles of Shiitt in the White House...
Hey Mooch,
Move your fat nasty behind out to Haiti.
OMG, LOL!!!! Red wine ALL OVER my iPad !!!!
Almost 200 years ago.
Then GTFO you stupid, ungrateful *itch!
I am a victim too. /s
I do indeed sir. I was trying to see if anyone else knew it too. Obviously, you get it too. 😀
Now I know. It's been YOU holding me down. ;-)
Blithering imbecile.
Don’t worry about it Moochelle, a couple of hundred wake-ups and you’ll be out on your ear.
I can’t understand people so unhappy all of the time about everything.
A woman of substance would have used the history of the White House as an inspirational point in her speech to these young adults; a call to how far we have come. A woman of grace would have used the opportunity to give glory and thanks to God and the tens of thousands of Americans who gave their lives so that slavery was ended and a black couple is living in the White House.
There is no gratitude, no humility, no sense of wonder at the enormity of that fact. They must have truly hardened hearts.
I pity them.
If a person had respect for their ancestors, they would be proud of their accomplishments.
And therein lies the problem with most blacks today. Rather than being proud of their ancestors' endurance and accomplishments, they debase them as a source of grievance.
