I beg to differ that Hillary would be the one to bring change. Due all respect to all the presidential candiates Hillary is the most experienced candidate running, Obama is the least experience and that is the plain truth.

I will vote for Obama if he wins the Democratic primary, otherwise I'm voting Republican. I know many independents who feel the same way. Something all the Hillary supporters should consider...do you want to win the primary for Hillary? Or do you want a Democrat in the White House?

a vote for obama is like voting for one of the three stooges! this guy is poor example of leadership. His wife agrees he cannot win, don't waste your time. He doesnt come close in experience as even John Edwards...
Obama is still running scared of Clinton, and with good reason...
Oprah can't buy you this obama boy...

In the next decade will be the most difficult years for the United States in terms on war on terrorism and the national secirity ; the declining dollar and the economy ; the millions of illegals in the Umited States plus all the health care and education problems , Sen. OBAMA is simp[ly not prepared and not experience to tackle the problems that lie ahead for the United States and the world . For all USA ,those should be the issues .

If you want the same old song and dance, Billary is your man/woman? She lies like the men and has taken more than one page out of Billy's book. If she is nominated the Republicans can run a dog and still keep the White House. A recent poll suggested that 49% of ALL Americans of any party would vote against her no matter who her opponent was. That speaks volumes to her electability.

I am an independent, I vote for who seems to be the best leader and I can tell you I will be voting for anyone but her. Take head Dems and give me someone I can work with, either Obama or Edwards will do. (I know so many swing voters who feel this way it is gong to be a landslide against Billary if she is nominated)

As to the issue of experience and intelligence, is it true that Hillary failed the D.C. bar exam or is that a vicious rumor? I would want to know the truth about this for any presidential candidate, especially the first female contender.

Michelle is right, her husband is the different candidate, the only one not experienced as the others, the only one who is using his opponets solutions as his own, the only one hoping to get Oprah to buy him votes since he has nothing else to offer, even Michelle Obama realizes his chance of winning is a pipe dream... Yes Michelle he's different alright, Obama isnt even as qualified as bush to be president...

CLINTON THE CLEAR CHOICE FOR 2008,

With all due respect, Mrs. Obama has no earthly idea which Democrat would bring about more change if elected President. That outcome will depend largely on the membership of Congress and how well (or poorly) the President works with them. Tough thing is, there are obvious reasons to believe that Hillary would work better with Congressional Democrats than Obama would.

I'm from Southern Illinois. I don't know what Obama has ever done for me, or any part of Illinois outside of the Chicago area. Is he planning on being the President of the United States or the President of Chicago?

Bush has an "ivy league education" and it's universally agreed, he's an idiot. Being accepted by and graduating from such universities does not guarantee intelligence. Everyone is aware that preferential consideration is given to certain people based, not on merit, but who you know, as well ethnicity.

i can't believe that you people are putting michelle down like that just because she is telling the truth. You say she was wrong for saying being there done that, but that is the truth isn't it not a fact that the clintons have already been in the white house, and hillary is just going to copy bill anyway. So what michelle said is true you people who put down a intelligent women is only showing your own ignorance. Hillary has waffled on so many issues she has voted to go to war on so many occasions, and you idiots let her get away with waffleling and making bad votes just because her last name is clinton. You hillary lovers are pathetic.

Michelle is a brilliant woman who graduated from two of the top universities in the nation. For some of you "strong woman" Hillary supporters to be denouncing her like you are, is pretty disgusting.

Smart? If she were smart something of substance would come out of her mouth once in a while. She's all generalities: Obama's the best, Hillary is just "been there, done that", and so on; blah, blah, blah. . . As far as intelligence goes, she can't begin to touch Hillary, and where she was educated doesn't matter, she still sounds shallow and stupid. Wow! Now Obama has two light-weights stumping for him: Michelle and Oprah.

Michelle/Obama,
To me, the turning point from you was when Obama was asked at 1st Youtube Debate, Question was Simple, "Are you Black" or Do you consider yourself Black?, he ignored that and answered with smile, "look, the issue is not that, but the real issue is...." Well, the point is, We are what we are, and we should pride on it. Race, Language, Religion, Sex are not an issue to me. But I would respect to see what people stand for. So with this fact, what will Oparah voice for? Should we now see Oprah trying to influence voters with her celebrity status that works just in TV world? Endorsing would be different, but being at that status and campaigning should be judged by voters against her skills, what she believes and stand for, not just that she is TV star, so that makes us to believe whatever she says, Nope!
Obama was comparing First Lady and Senator wife on his last speech, look, thats not apple to apple, common man, if you guys claim that you went to Harvard and Princeton, Please lets save the integrity of it, Lets not prove that wrong by the views expressed.

Who cares about Oprah when you have Michelle. She went to Princeton and Harvard Law School. She's at least as smart as Hillary and doesn't give me the chills. Posted By Mark, San Francisco, CA : November 28, 2007 8:15 pm Well I hope you're ready for the Republicans attack on her if Obama gets the nod ...because after you remove all the rhetoric and innuendos being a smart women that does anything but smile and shake hands is their real problem with Hillary. Hillary gives you the chills huh....she doesn't do that to me but then again I really don't care if Hillary is the biggest B---- in the world or the nicest personable, I'll probably never get to see it anyway..I am basing my vote on who I think is the best candidate.

Go Michelle! Every American should be looking for a positive change – not scandals, cover-ups, back-paddling, pandering, etc. that we experience in the Clinton administration. By the way, if Hillary is claiming experience from her husband's administration, then she should owned up to NAFTA that has caused good paying jobs to go overseas, she should reflect the white house papers confirming her good/bad experience as a staffer, and Hillary should release the white house papers confirming her good/bad experience as the author of universal health care!

I think Michelle Obama and her team should really stick to truth, or atleast wake up; Michelle and Hiallary are like Sky and Ground and so is our Rookie Senator. If you worry so much, stay home Maam. Clinton thinks of Nation and for American Dream, Security, Advancement, Foreign Policy, Health Care, Education and ofcourse speaks out of experience. Michelle should realize that fact. Why are you soo going after Clinton on every words that comes out of you; shouldn't you try to say what you have, what you would offer and all. All I hear is I smoked pot, or we will give time to our kids, our family is important to us and all. I think you should think about staying home and do good in what you want to do. We need more than childcare, especially at this crisis and to face republicans. Thank you.

Okay Michelle tell us the american people exactly what you mean by: "Barack Obama the one and only "different candidate?" Obama is no different with the exception that of all the candidates, and I don't care what the polls says is the one that should not be running. So Michelle, Obama and Oprah do what you gotta do. We will still see the end results no Obama.
