Michelle Obama's Historic Speech at Democratic Convention

The best part about Michelle Obama's speech, which impressed me in every way, was hearing people afterward, in particular minorities and women, saying how proud they were of their country, after seen an African American woman playing such an important role in American history.

Part 2 Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBbM8f8nxmY Also, in this fun behind the scenes video, you can see Michelle preparing for the speech, and also a brief clip of her 3/4 Asian niece, the daughter of Barack's hapa Indonesian sister Maya, and my old friend and fellow Chinese American Konrad Ng. Two years ago, Konrad encouraged me to get behind Barack Obama's candidacy early. I'm so glad that I did.
