First Lady Michelle Obama Shares Powerful Speech At The
 2016 Democratic National Convention (DNC)  

BHR Hollywood Reports............Michelle Obama cast the presidential race as one between a positive role model for children in , Hillary Clinton,  and a damaging one... in Donald Trump in the marquee speech on the Democratic National Convention's opening night.

Hillary Clinton 

“I wake up every morning in a house that was built by slaves. And I watch my daughters— two beautiful intelligent black young women — play with the dog on the White House lawn,” Obama said. “And because of Hillary Clinton, my daughters and all of our sons and daughters now take for granted that a woman can be president of the United States.”


“Don't let anyone ever tell you that this country is not great. That somehow we need to make it great again. Because this right now is the greatest country on Earth.”

Obama electrified the crowd at the Wells Fargo Arena in Philadelphia, taking the stage just after 10 p.m. in a departure from the political attacks on display all day -- making the case that, because of her character and temperament, Clinton is the role model she'd like her daughters to see in the Oval Office.

Even Trump, who Obama was implicitly criticizing, praised her remarks.

"I thought her delivery was excellent," Trump told reports. "I thought she did a very good job. I liked her speech."

It was a remarkable embrace of the prime-time stage for Mrs.Obama, who was reluctant about the spotlight that came when her husband, then-Illinois Sen. Barack Obama, launched his presidential campaign against Clinton in 2007.
