FLASHBACK: Obama Calls for Training 'A Million Baracks & Michelles' for 'Social Change'
One Barack Obama was enough.
One Michelle Obama was enough.
And yet, liberals seem to forget that over 1,000 Democrat legislative seats were lost during the former president’s two terms in office.
Enter Barack, who wants a whole lot more “Barack and Michelles.”
From Washington Examiner:
He told a packed arena at Bell MTS Place how he plans to create a “university for social change” that will serve as a hub for young people in the U.S. and around the world who are skeptical of the “old institutions.”
Obama: “If we train them — if we give them skills, support, financing, media training, spotlights, then they’re the ones that are going to carry forward the solutions that we so desperately need.“
Obama: “If we could form a network of those young leaders, not just in the United States, but around the world, then we got something, if we can train a million Baracks and Michelles who are running around thinking they can change the world.“

Some people out there believe Michelle Obama is the only chance Democrats have to defeat President Trump in 2020 and take back the White House.
Why? Who knows?
Name recognition, maybe?
For example…

As Democrats begin their campaign for the party’s 2020 nomination, #Obama is the party’s unrivaled powerbroker. He will be the biggest speaker at the party’s 2020 convention. His wife, #MichelleObama, might be the second biggest. https://t.co/mPhQ7JObDs

Michelle, though, doesn’t care.
She just made clear that she’s not a candidate.
From Daily Mail:
Michelle Obama has ruled out running for president at any point in the future.
The former First Lady said she wanted to ‘make room’ for younger generations who she and husband former President Barack Obama hope to ’empower’.
She made the announcement while speaking to a sell-out crowd at the Frank Erwin Center in Austin, TX.
The word ‘Democrat’ is synonymous with the word ‘hypocrite.’
Dems say they’re fighting for the repressed, but often times they’re doing it from the comfort of a private jet or an office from one of their three homes.
In Michelle’s case, she’s doing it wearing $4,000 boots.
Yes. Four thousand dollar boots.
Former First Lady Michelle Obama has been attacking the Trumps all week, and now she’s doing it in a pair of $4,000 yellow, high-knee boots.
While speaking to an audience on Wednesday at the Barclay’s Center in Brooklyn to promote her new book, Becoming, the former first lady wore gaudy sequin Balenciaga over-the-knee boots and a bright yellow dress resembling a bathrobe.
YES to Michelle Obama in these thigh high Balenciaga boots 🙌🏾💛 pic.twitter.com/hWSXMqw0T4
