Is Michelle Obama Dumb?

By DemocracyRules

h/t AmericanDigest

I know, it is not politically correct to suggest that a black person might be dumb.  But dumbness is just as prevalent among blacks as it is among whites.

About college entrance exams, Michelle said, "You cannot measure the success of a child by a single test. And if that were the case, I wouldn’t be here, because I was not a good test taker. How many kids do you know who are like me?"

Michelle should absolutely not go there.  First, it is very common in industrialized countries to use aptitude testing to rank students.  The U.S. is not at all unique this way, and Michelle is displaying her ignorance to suggest otherwise.  She is effectively making a plea to change the industrialized world, which is bit quixotic.  Second, she got into university via affirmative action, and she did not have to perform as well as whites to get in.

Michelle Obama has made so many strange, dark and disturbing statements lately that someone has set up MichelleObamaSuicideWatch .
