I wanted to watch Larry King Live the other night, because the guest was Michelle Obama. After all the coverage of her husband recently, I was interested to hear her views on an election that, at the time of the interview, was clearly turning in her husband’s direction.
She is a hospital executive and a Harvard law graduate, a protective mother of two who has her children enrolled in a private school very close to her Chicago workplace, and who, at one point, tried to talk her husband out of the enormous step of running for president because “that’s my job.” Speaking with a gentle lisp and a confident manner, she showed a strong grasp of the realities of the political life and was convincing when describing herself as facing many of the same struggles as any working mother. She says that when she addresses campaign audiences, she focuses on the “unfairness” and “inequality” that cry out for the kind of change her husband represents. She was also complimentary toward recent rival John Edwards in a way that suggests Edwards might again be on a Vice Presidential short list.
When asked about her husband’s personality, she admiringly called him “consistent”, noting his perfect attendance at parent-teacher conferences and how he makes time to be with her and their children despite a campaign schedule that would almost preclude it.
Relaxed and direct, Mrs. Obama said she “looked down every dark road” before the Obamas decided to venture toward the presidency, and so she doesn’t dwell on “what could go wrong.” She said that one of the beauties of an Obama presidency would be that her husband is a person who is open to change when he recognizes he has made a mistake and does not follow a leadership pattern that stubbornly holds onto bad decisions. Which she knows from wifely experience.
“Can his mind be changed?” asked King.
Michelle Obama was quick with a smile.
“Hey, I change it every day,” she said.

back for the last business touchdown or bit of career progress, no matter how small. Just like the traffic situation just beyond your windshield, you should be thankful for even the merest movement forward.
Super Tuesday was an amazing pageant of states and percentages and opinions and projections, and 
I, for one, agree with those who see Obama as “the right man at the right time” who has caught on to the spirit of a nation tired of war and recession and fear, and given it a voice. But more than that, he is the face of a diverse America moving forward together. Finally, the Democrats present the nation with living symbols of their politics of inclusion—a Black man and a white woman and ask for its vote.
