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.
Its the story that I witness every single day, she said, when I wake up in a house that was built by slaves

Then leave the house, you bloviating retard.
Does this mean she’s no longer proud of this country?
Except when she’s on vacation
I'll help round up some volunteers to help with the packing..............
My first thought as well. Truman had most of the interior gutted and rebuilt from the joists up, just keeping the recognizable "skin" of the White House.
Yes. Slaves definitely did a lot of the work to build the White House and were also used to create the materials from which it was built. It is necessarily a bad thing to mention an historical fact.
Yes, but also they used paid workers and artisans
The White House was totally gutted to its outer walls and totally rebuilt from the inside out during the Truman Administration (late 1940’s to early 1950’s). Did slaves do that?
This guy michel obama is disgusting
Washington DC needs an enema.
Michael Obama is our first transgender “First Lady” and a beastly one at that.
Perhaps some of you can make sense of how the White House has interpreted the use of slaves:

There is a record (maybe) of 3 slaves?
And they all had more class and dignity than MOOOOOOchelle...
Ghetto
Doesn’t begin to splain this shit of woman
The artisans and craftsmen of the late 18th century were all white. Slaves may have driven the wagons to the construction site and unloaded them but white people built the white house and everything else during that time period.
