Michelle Obama seen as role model for South Africans

[BlackMarxist]

White people are racist; I try to give them the benefit of the doubt but they always reveal their true feelings behind the cover of the internet!

[MrBoy219]

this is done at tax payers expenxe.. what a rip off

[KingOfAfrica2012]

54 dick heads

[kkamalanii]

[danie142009]

[stevencortez444]

Why do black people and english people always have bad teeth, do they not believe in braces? Gross

[slimshed55]

@stevencortez444 Come suck Black dick & talk shit..Fuck u recist pussy cat Bombaclat..Am chillin with ur mamaaaa...BreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeH

[itsmehugh]

i'm asean... I love black and the obama's! no offense to other races...

[pakih0m0]

This arrogant scum bucket who calls herself a First Lady spent millions of tax payer money to go on these redundant lavish vacations while people are jobless and homeless in our nation. People don't hate this woman because she is black, people hate her because she has anti-American sentiments which she displayed before this puppet president was elected.

[xlr8up]

I'm so happy to see Michelle Obama visiting Barak's South African birthplace, it's important they show support for his motherland.

We're blessed to have an African-American President who was actually born in Africa, US ties to that suffering continent are so much stronger now than if we had elected yet another warmongering, big banking-buddy Bush clone!

There's a reason Obama won the Nobel Peace prize y'know!?!

Go Obama for 2012!

We're all with you in spirit Michelle, BOTH in America AND Africa!

[sasquach33]

@luckyduckseven please list accomplishments. "probably" over-came? any evidence of her "accomplishments"?

[falcondriver100]

There goes another $800,000 in Tax Money. She should be criminally charged for this. Why do I have to pay for her mothers vacation?

WIsh she would just STAY in South Africa. She fits in much better there.

[brno22504]

White people are racist; I try to give them the benefit of the doubt but they always reveal their true feelings behind the cover of the internet!

[msmithstud]

@brno22504 i bet your role model is farrakhan. That's like to pot calling the kettle black.

[brno22504]

@msmithstud Farrakhan is all talk no action I don't like him ... No I'm calling you white , I'm calling myself Black. My role model is my father; he is a college educated man who owns his own restaurant business and could give a flying flip about what white people are doing let alone what they think or feel!

[msmithstud]

@brno22504 good for him

[brno22504]

@coinageboy why did whites move to SA in the first place? Exploitation and genocide of the natives ; Sounds like Karma to me!

[southparkfan2717]

Don't idolize her for just being black. I'm in no way a racist, but I hate people like like Jesse Jackson who is a MLK wannabe, going around preaching whatever he can call a misrepresentation of the black community. As an Obama supporter the only thing color related I have to say is he isn't like Jesse Jackson acting like there is still a massive American struggle for black rights. Obama is a politician who just happens to be black.

[brno22504]

@southparkfan2717 you should reread history Jesse Jackson isn't a wannabe he marched with MLK Jr.; in fact they became close friends and he was with him in Memphis the day of his assassination!

[337noname]

Americans are proud of our First Lady! USA! USA!

[srok100]

YES!!!

[19EHF]

I think Michelle Obama is a huge inspiration to women in SA. I mean shes so accomplished and smart just like her husband. While Obama is busy TRYING to get the country back on track, she representing us in Africa. So Obama for 2012.

[Polydynamix]

Hi, I'm michelle obama and these are my 90 secret service members, don't mind the apaches that are going to circle the building the entire time I'm here.

[MrBoy219]

OUR TAX MONEY IS PAYING FOR HER TRIP TO S AFRICA... WHAT A WASTE OF TAX PAYERS MONEY

[kemetkush]

@MrBoy219 fuck racists socall tax hater...

[MrBoy219]

@kemetkush ok  mr .. bongo bongo man

[kemetkush]

@MrBoy219 fuck all racists white faggots.....hahahaha

[blueiguy1]

@kemetkush I know right this is why comments are disabled, white people in America are foaming at the mouth every time they see successful black woman that isn't groveling to them

[kemetkush]

@blueiguy1 right on....

[Alexper12]

@blueiguy1 You're the only person mentioning race on this entire comment section. LIBBIES CAN'T HANDLE THEIR OWN HYPOCRISY. They would go insane if they actually tried to realize how stupid they are.

[csincali]

@blueiguy1 Your insane!! What a load of crap!!

[msmithstud]

@kemetkush if she's such an inspiration, she shoud keep her fat ass over there.

[kemetkush]

@msmithstud you should go back to faggot-europe....

[msmithstud]

@kemetkush go back to AIDS infected faggot africa and swing from your tree where you came from.

[brno22504]

@msmithstud well at least now you reveal your true motives; it has nothing to do with your dislike of "good will" trips it is hatred of black people.

[msmithstud]

@brno22504 i have little respect for anyone using the taxpayer money for vacations, rather it be the first family or the royal family. How much 'goodwill' has she done for tornado-ravaged Japan? The tornado victims of our country? She has no problem asking people to send their money to Hait(majority of which went in someone elses pocket thanks to the corrupt Haitian government). Why should i support her when she hasn't done a damn thing over here.

[kemetkush]

@msmithstud i am in africa....you white faggot.....

[msmithstud]

@kemetkush thats the place for you. Now go climb a tree with moo moo moochelle obama.

[kemetkush]

@msmithstud now you go back to faggot-europe...

[falcondriver100]

@kemetkush STFU boy!

[kemetkush]

@falcondriver100 suck a boy dick....white faggot.

[falcondriver100]

@kemetkush Suck some dirty droopy Zulu tits & have a watermelon feast knuckle dragger.

[kemetkush]

@falcondriver100 the only good white racists, is a dead white-racists......go back to europe.

[falcondriver100]

@kemetkush What about black racists like yourself, jackass??

[kemetkush]

@falcondriver100 black-people can't be racists....you dumb asshole.

[falcondriver100]

@kemetkush LMAO!! You just said that. Amazing! Oh the ignorance of our little African friends........

[kemetkush]

@falcondriver100 ignorance of white-faggots.......

[msmithstud]

@MrBoy219 lol. moo moo moo moo moochelle

[VictimOfBoredom]

@MrBoy219 As far as I'm concerned, spreading goodwill for America is one of the few sensible uses of taxpayers' money.

[MrBoy219]

@VictimOfBoredom why not spread the goodwill for America in Japan.. which was hard hit by the earth quake and psunami...I just think she is a racist...

[VictimOfBoredom]

@MrBoy219 This is the second time either of the Obamas have visited sub-Saharan Africa since Barack's inauguration in 2009. -_-

[MrBoy219]

@VictimOfBoredom maybe that is where she plans to retire after his one term presidency

[VictimOfBoredom]

@MrBoy219 *yawn*

[brno22504]

@MrBoy219 ww2

[msmithstud]

@MrBoy219 because Japanese aren't black. Where was her PSA when Japan was hit by the earthquake and tsunami??????

[Benson678226]

Priceless picture of OUR first lady with Mr. Nelson Mandela!

[Benson678226]

Love the video including OUR First Lady!

[NusaybahBintKa3b]

ew her daughter has a long head.

[AfricanReality]

South Africans are very beautiful. I wonder who they were during the Bible days?

Sad that there are so many ungreatful people who are against Mrs. Obama.

[Livefreerevolution]

@AfricanReality she's a bigot. the question you should ask yourself is WHY was she 'disbarred' from practicing law? you'll never know because the case is sealed. that's right she is just a low life pos.

[AfricanReality]

@Livefreerevolution Mrs Obama is not a biget. Where did she say out of her mouth that she is racist?? She never did she is a loving person who is trying hard with her husband to better the U.S. enconomy that the repulicans messed up giving hand outs to their rich friends.

[TrollMCTrollinMAKKY]

Your lady luncharms are showing Mrs Obeezy.

[apocolypse1022]

Role Model? I think she would make a better Big Butt Model....

[marklosextremus]

how is she a role model? She hasnt done ANYTHING

[Ocker3]

@marklosextremus ahhaha, you think Barack would be Anywhere near where he is today without her help? A good family behind you is incredibly vital to making it to that level of power. People would ask "how can he understands the struggles a family faces if he's not a father himself?" The partner (wife Or husband) of a politician, CEO, whatever can make or break their career by being supportive and providing good advice. He's done this will Only with her help.

[sukebegaijin1]

@Ocker3 Very nice comment. What ever you said is very true but a single unmarried people will never understand how vital a family role is in mans career Well said..

[marklosextremus]

@Ocker3 pssssh she has leeched off him and done nothing herself HE DID THE WORK she reaps the benefits by being a gold digging whore who is racist against whites

[MrBoy219]

@marklosextremus I AGREE 100%

[brianestoll]

@marklosextremus she should get a nobel peace prize LOL

[msmithstud]

@brianestoll like her husband for all his drone killings. lol So much for peace

[FlatulenceFox]

Here's what's really telling & significant about many of the posters here: they are looking at a very innocuous story about the First Lady's visit to SA and from there they are reflexively spewing out their most visceral, pavlovian response that reveals so much more about the poster than it does about Michelle Obama, the US, race, poverty and overcoming obstacles. Just putting a picture of Michelle Obama with no story would have likely received the same negative responses from those people.

[Livefreerevolution]

@FlatulenceFox she's a fraud.

[FlatulenceFox]

@Livefreerevolution what does that mean? Or, more to the point, do you even know that means? Because I am 99.9999% certain that you are saying that for pure shits and giggles.

[belybor]

Wife of the biggest warmonger on the planet Earth acting like she's all that nice - looks pretty pathetic i'd say.

[VictimOfBoredom]

@belybor Hilarious to see a Russian criticizing someone else of warmongering.

[19EHF]

@belybor Right because clearly you could do a better job.

[Fighting31406]

@belybor Exactly.

[msmithstud]

@belybor these ''good will'' trips are just an excuse for her and her kids to have a vacation at the tax payer's expense. I'd have more respect for people like this and the royal family if they were to pay for shit themselves rather than at OUR expense.

[landlogger]

Biting my tongue.

[simbakafiri]

@coinageboy move to europe if u wanna insult blacks and jews...nobody forced you to stay in SA

[yourtreat2]

@coinageboy You forgot to mention asshole Republicans, Democrats and right-Wing-Christian Tea Party shitheads, not to mention the Born Again morons..

[Livefreerevolution]

@yourtreat2 No just libTARD, KKK, left wing LOONS

[yourtreat2]

She's a role model for Planned Parenthood.

[mamatesh]

Love, love....love.....!!

[patricblack1]

That's fucked up.

[baikhari]

How do I spell Michelle? S-O-C-I-A-L-I-T-E

[ig33ku]

What a great role model!!! To be the first black lady married to a puppet black president who only got his seat at the big chair by the grace of a the white first lady who btw was holding the balls of her white president husband. Well maybe not holding them hard enough considering the fiasco he caused.

[HPSLWarrioR]

FUCK THIS BITCH.FUCK OBAMA

[kemetkush]

@HPSLWarrioR fuck you white-bitch....

[greenstarlite]

This is the most inspirational first lady in my lifetime. She married the President when he was an intern in the law firm where she worked. She certainly did not marry him for money because she earned more than he did at the time. She had the good sense to pick a good man though so I give her credit for that!

[cosmosgato]

30 asshole dislike this?

Sucks being you.

Because that's all you can do.

ROTHL

[HPSLWarrioR]

@cosmosgato u like this coz u black son of a bitch

[duarte4777]

duarte4777

[GGLebo23]

South African accents sound so horrible

[TheUnitedNewsNetwork]

Um no she is not? I just read an Article saying a large portion of Africans think Michelle Obama is a bad example and they do not like her one bit.

[PacoMxxN]

27 ppl are racist

[gitmehere1]

@PacoMxxN 28 now mother-fucker

[556forlunch]

@PacoMxxN You fucking retard.

[sdeevooo]

Coming from her is more believable and more inspiring because she's kind of looks the same as us. We are ready to believe anything she says because she looks like us. very inspiring indeed

[tjohn1986]

Role model? Moral : Marry half-black men who promises "change" to 300 million lol

[TimeGod12]

Obama is a role model of how affirmative action and minority votes can get you far in life.

If anyone questions your ability, you can always play the race card.

[simbakafiri]

@TimeGod12 well keep talking and that minority votes you talking about is just getting larger...nothing you can do about it...unless u move to russia or yugoslavia

[sasquach33]

Role model? Seriously? PUKE! Nice propaganda AlJazeera

[LuckyDukeSeven]

@sasquach33

I wouldn't call this propaganda as much as I'd call it accurate reporting. Michelle Obama is an accomplished person. She went to Princeton before ever knowing Barack. She did a lot in her life, mostly on her own. She probably over-came more adversity than her husband, being from a poor black family in Chicago (as opposed to a white, cultured diplomatic-style family, like her husband's)

There's also a lot of love for her in South Africa. I can see why, from a racial perspective.

[GGLebo23]

@LuckyDukeSeven This is what I am saying. People are acting like she's some random gold digger who has accomplished nothing, but marry rich. That's completely untrue

[LuckyDukeSeven]

Her south African counter part looks more like her south African counter parts.

[abluu21]

of

 cousre

[dark86moon]

I understand the reasoning as to why someone might say that simply allowing your role model to be someone of your same ethnicity (only made it to where she is because she's the man's wife) just because because is dumb. BUT, I do wonder how many both BASHERS AND FOLLOWERS of Michelle actually know her track record before she even met Obama....

[hdzsound]

South Africa is a Greater country than the United State

[VictimOfBoredom]

@hdzsound Greater at spreading AIDS...

[hdzsound]

@VictimOfBoredom

yeah they are the best

But USA is not far away.!

[VictimOfBoredom]

@hdzsound By those standards, neither is Canada.

[hdzsound]

@VictimOfBoredom

LOL,

you should already know that:

Canada is the best country in the whole entire universe and even more.

[VictimOfBoredom]

@hdzsound Talk about mindless nationalism...

[hdzsound]

@VictimOfBoredom

HAHA

we the best.

we are way above those things.

while others keep fighting over futility, we living all good, with our oil money.

[VictimOfBoredom]

@hdzsound Yes, like Saudi Arabia. Bravo to you.

[hdzsound]

@VictimOfBoredom

not that much! Canada is a very large country we do everything.

we are 2 very different country

[VictimOfBoredom]

@hdzsound You might just be the dumbest Canadian I've ever met.

[hdzsound]

@VictimOfBoredom

XD

maybe

maybe I'm joking

[windofthegods]

Anger is a futile attempt at explaining how I feel about this...

[BannedUfos]

I like her better than that witch, Hillary Clinton.

[MrBoy219]

@BannedUfos HILARY IS A SMART WOMAN ... MICHELLE IS NOT

[TheVee909]

dumb & deceived must be a disease all over earth.

[backchodes]

Wow you guys are fucked up

[AEVautomatic]

you know what? Im not even going to say it.

[cremebruleec]

The first daughters are very cute, especially the little one!

[06hatter]

Oh god, we as a race are fucked aren't we? People cling to 'hope', but it isn't anything but a crumb cast forth from the ruling class to keep everyone pacified. We keep clinging to these crumbs (president Obama is one of them) until eventually it's over for the human race. The Mrs. Obama is a collaborator like everyone in this corrupt administration. May our tombstone read "We had hope that someone would save us from ourselves"

[windofthegods]

@06hatter You could say the same for faith. WE are the root and cause of all coming evil, WE alone are our saviours, WE are the only ones that can make this world better. Instead we "hope", "believe" and have "faith" that some mythical external force is going to save us.

[IranContraScumDid911]

A role model? She is a corrupt scumbag criminal thief

[BMWg84]

Role model?? The respect her because she's black. Her own husband is authorizing unjustified murders all over the world. You would think she would consult with him and tell him it is immoral.

[strong8action]

SHE IS THE BUT UGLIEST

[pgthinker007]

She is the worst first lady I have ever seen.

Mrs. Obama never learns how to sit on the chair. She is not in a Chicago night club.

[MacHK1]

nice story. South African accent killed my ears though :P

[reprimand33]

@MacHK1

American accent is destroying English!! Not only bad pronunciation but they also have an inability to spell correctly :)

[VictimOfBoredom]

@reprimand33 You're an idiot. :)

[reprimand33]

@VictimOfBoredom

Oh..on the contrary 

[VictimOfBoredom]

@reprimand33 Your words hold greater credibility than your claims.

[MacHK1]

@reprimand33

You wouldn't know if you're from Taiwan lol. Btw there is no "American accent" there are several accents in the US.

[reprimand33]

@MacHK1

I am not indigenous to TW I only reside here for my studies :) Yeah I am well aware of this fact my roommate is a US citizen!!

[MacHK1]

@reprimand33

Good for him. There's more than one accent in the US btw

[Livefreerevolution]

what a joke. guess they have delusional, dumbed down, fluoridated people over there too huh!?

[yellowkrux]

@Livefreerevolution Yes, you'd fit in there well, you should start moving today.

[Livefreerevolution]

@yellowkrux Why would I move there when I have lemmings like you already here? Cmon boy think.

[JogBird]

the moral is for girls to marry powerful men

[GGLebo23]

@JogBird Well I mean, Michelle was an Ivy league graduate and she did was making more money than Barack when he was a Senator...

[pgunn01]

@JogBird Michelle Obama would be just as impressive were she not married to her husband. Look at her career.

[bigjstokes]

@JogBird or be one of the only black females at Princeton.

[SlyBlackNinja]

@JogBird in her defence she is actually well educated and has a degree in law and held some important public service roles in her past, she's a smart women in her own, and as such to me seems like a worth while role model for you women (then again im not a woman)

[HenryDavidT]

@JogBird That's true in general, not true with the Obamas. Michelle WAS the more "powerful" mate, when they first married. I believe she was either Barack's supervisor, or someone of that rank, when he got his first job. Or so the urban legend goes. So, again, in THIS CASE, Michelle achieved more, as a lawyer and supervisor, before Barack started making his "meteoric" rise, from a community organizer, to a part time constitutional teaching position, to the US Senate, to the US Presidency.

[ZinayH]

She is only trying to get Obama voters! XD LOL!!

[x0acake]

lol @ mad europeans
