We should all get behind Obama including Republicans. He is our only chance to break the corrupt old ways and the status quo which has driven our country into a huge deep ditch.

Also, when you tell a African American he should always be totally proud of the USA, remember until the 1960's we had segregation and few civil rights. In 2000 and 2004 massive amounts of blacks were denied their right to vote. Bush ignored the black neighborhoods after Katrina. Millions of blacks get thrown in prison when whites would get off. And slavery is actually written into the Constitution. So have some perspective.

Besides, real patriotism has nothing to do with being proud of the current administration. When crooks take over our government we should all be ashamed, not proud. We should all oppose them and call for their removal. That is what Michelle Obama means. Crooks took over the government in 2001, but now we can be proud that we're taking our country back.
