I'm a black woman who never thought I'd see a powerful, beautiful female with a body like mine in the White House. Then I saw Michelle Obama -- and her booty!

    Whaaa???

    Still scratching my head on this one.

    Sorry you had a poor body image. I think you should find acceptance and pride within yourself, not foist it off on Michelle Obama.

    By the way, though her physique is certainly feminine, there is nothing unusual or even extreme about her backside and the fact that it's a matter of public debate on the internet really is sad.

    There are innumerably more aspects and opinions about Michele Obama that I'd love to hear opinions about, things that might actually matter.

    You can count me among those who read the article and cringed over the concept, content and finally the credibility of the author.

    Really, that's the best you could do?

    You get a big eye roll on that one.
