Background material

Just a note here to point out that the stuff on Michelle Obama's background, i.e. this edit, was copied from the Barack Obama page and was written by Richard Jensen, with minor edits by me. I'm going to copy the edits to this section back to the Barack Obama article. John Stephenson 02:11, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Righty-o. I read parts of the original thesis, and found the text in our article highly misleading, as there is a vast difference between someone's saying 'I am Black first and a student second' and 'People are making me feel that I am Black first and a student second', which seems to me to be what she was actually saying. Interesting, and rather sad. Let's hope things are changing at Princeton (and everywhere else, for that matter).
Sooo...I just jumped in here, and then got interrupted part way through. I hope to be able to do some research and write a bit more about Mrs Obama. That 'to do' list is getting mighty long. Sigh.
Whatever happened to our 'biographies' idea? Anyone else want to give it a go?
