Obama and Michelle both got an undergrad degree in African American studies ( I know she did but am not 100% sure he did too. My memory recalls that info in an article about her thesis which had been requested not to be made public till after the Nov election.Inquiring minds found this out so the Obama people allowed it's release ).

I think it's fair to ask them how they have evolved from all that talk and consumption of Black culture into a couple that can relate to the regular American mom and pop that aren't black. That's a fair question.

Michelle Obama's thesis was all about black graduates of Princeton and how they related to blacks after leaving the elite culture of Princeton U.

I have no problem with her studies but I do think she should talk about how she has evolved into someone who represents and is knowledgeable about all of us who sit here in North America and call ourselves Americans. Obama should also address this question.
