y do i NEVER see cindy mccain campaigning or even appearing remotely involved in this whole election?

being “first lady of the u.s.a.” is an actual “title.”

Because she`s spending time at one of her many homes, driving one of her many luxury foreign vehicles, buying $300,000 outfits lol

I love Michelle Obama. I wanna be like her when I grow up…calm and collected under these circumstances? She’s a saint, lol.

If people like Palin & McCain were trying to play my husban like that, I would get a little outta hand with them.

I love Michelle Obama. I wanna be like her when I grow up. Cool and collected under pressure.

I know if it were me, I would go a little crazy on people if the likes of McCain or Palin were trying to play my husband.

Less than 5 comments for Michelle Obama and almost 500 for Beyonce. God Bless America!

lol @ Sasha!

McLame irks me.

WOOT WOOOOOOOOOOOT OBAMA OBAMA OBAMA!!!

what exactly is the Ayers controversy? I could easily google it, but maybe someone could give us a quick blow by blow breakdown.

Sasha, you said a MOUTHFUL.

Sad thing is, you might want to direct your comment to BLACK America; we’re the ones who can’t seem to get our priorities straight as a whole…

I love her! She should be first lady.

Michelle/Barak 08!

“He can take the name calling… but the unfairness, that makes him mad.”

When will we get to a point when we get mad at injustices?
And when YOU do finally ‘get mad’ at these injustices, what will YOU DO??

Beautiful, articulate, intelligent and above the hate!

Just what I want in a first lady!

@4-You’re so right! I hope everyone has the same enthusiam on November 4th as they do for Beyonce. And Mrs. Obama is a well-spoken black woman…made very proud.

You don’t see Cindy McCain because she’s a freakin airhead who needs to stay far far way from the podium. Have you watched the news today, if not do a google search because she made some comments today about how Obama didn’t vote for the troops blah blah blah but her husband who was standing behind her voted no on the same doggone bill, unreal but she was trying to act like she was so shocked. If you see her lil speech than you’ll know why they’ve been keeping her in the background.

She needs to stay behind the scenes and keep taking those pain pills because she’s annoying.

I absolutely Love Michelle!! She is so classy! I think they are handling this underhanded name calling so well. It only makes them look good. McCain has so much animosity towards Obama you could cut it with a knife. It hurts him that he is being “outrun” by a man of color. I believe Mccain’s biggest mistake was picking Palin. She has brought his numbers down.. In my opinion… Not initially, but as she began to do interviews and give speech’s and debating… I think people became unsure of her.

McCain needs to go back to the drawing board.. this *ish he TRYIN’ to pull ain’t workin.

LOL@Sasha! True…Michelle was also on the Daily show today. Did anyone else notice last night Cindi Mc Cain didnt shake hands with anyone in the crowd? she just kept her hands behind her back lol. Im voting for someone that will hear my voice from all the way from Washington to Ohio. I cant even begin to think that someone associated with Cindi Mc Cain who doesn’t even want to connect with people that are 4 feet away from them is gonna hear my voice.

“That One” 08

michelle is da bomb.i love her spirit.she is nothing but the truth

@goo obama.
The whole willaim ayers planned an attack on the pentagon some odd years ago, but never imprisoned or trialed for the accusations upon him.Couple years later, he became a professor at one of the universities in Chicago where he and obama held positions on one of the committee’s.The bottom is, the mcain-palin want to mark obama as a “terrorist” because he and ayers were on the same board and were to gather on an educational matter for the city of Chicago. Ayers attempted to bomb the pentagon and his terrorist acts when barack obama was only 8 years old, so the mcain-palin gang try to tie obama and ayers as apart of the 2008 terrorist act, which is just appalling and crude, very distasteful at such a crucial time when millions are concerned about their homes, families, and jobs to try to shift the campaign to irrelevant claims of vicious acts towards obama when he was eight years old.
secondly, to the person who commented about beyonce 500 comments, to michelle obama’s 14 or so… this is not a direct competition or the battle of the comment, although it said that most of our peers are more interested in what beyonce is wearing or her next song, than the current issues of the world.
Entertianment is the evil, which our brain is easily attracted to .Certain headlines are appeasing to others.
With that said… I hope everybody registered, and ready for November 4th. I will be praying and counting my blessings for Michelle and barack obama.If the past debates haven’t convinced on which candidate to choice for, you need to reach to an agreement, its simple choice the lesser of two evils. It is not my to tell who you to vote for, but it my duty as an US Citizen to encourage my peers to go out and vote. I am a young college student, who needs all the money that I can get to get an education, with obama’s plan to give 4,000 to each student that volunteers every other weekend for about two or three month I am down.Mcain I haven’t really heard say anything that is realistic or pertains to me .
Its time for a change and barack obama is that change.
-THE END

lovin michelle obama. i would say what would you expect from a well-educated woman, but you know that barely means anything nowadays. she’s definitely holdin it down and making people question why the hell mrs mccain cant follow suit long enough to sound like she has the least bit of sense.

i love her.. a great role model

i love her.. a great role model

yea my dad was watching this earlier…she’s so classy

I wanna see OBAMA’s wife and McCain’ wife have a small discussion on issues that America is facing.. We all know at nite is where we do our most thinking and some of us share our thoughts with the person laying next to us.

thats my Soror looking FAB as always! SKEEEE-WEEEE

OBAMA ‘08

MICHELLE OBAMA IS AMAZING… SO HUMBLE, INTELLIGENT, ARTICULATE AND REFRESHING….. TO BE HONEST, BARACK SHOULD HAVE JUST PICKED HER TO BE HIS RUNNING MATE……SMILE

VOTE “THAT ONE” NOVEMBER 4TH

OBAMA 08′

She always handles herself well, glad she glossed over the “that one” incident, rude as it was it’s not significant to either of their politics or the nation as a whole, as for Mcains wife, he and his team were at least smart enough to realise that she would’nt be a beneficial factor in his campaigns, so she just keeps quite. (most of the time).

She’s an excellent role model for young girls these days, glad to see a woman of class, composure, intelligence and humility getting some media attention.

People, we should not be surprised with the way camp Obama is dealing with this ‘that one’ comment. Excellence, dignity and class as standard.
It must just irk some individuals that Obama will not get into a dog fight over race.

Obama for the white house!!

We are supporting you guys all the way here in the UK!!

Such class. Such class! She seemed very relaxed and real, and just intelligent. What a role model. This is what black women need to be portrayed as on TV.

man i’m sorry i missed Michelle Obama on CNN. she is such a smart classy lady.

what a wonderful first lady she’s gonna make! i loooove the Obama’s!

[...] Michelle Obama on Larry King Michelle Obama, wife of Democratic presidential candidate U.S. Sen. Barack Obama, appeared on the Larry King Live Wednesday night and spoke on the much-publicized comment made toward her husband in the debate earlier this week. (Concrete Loop) [...]

why do some blacks vote republican? how can any black person stand behind a party that is against you? that doesn’t show support for your existence/strugges? it baffles me? I’ve believe someone posted on another blog that i visit that the republcian party freed the slaves and most blacks were republician during those times, but what happened to make many blacks shift to the democractic party which was painted as anti-black (now it’s pro-black?)

see now thats a lady for you! We should all aspire to have the same class and dignity as Michelle Obama!

Thats Right Michelle….”We dont SWEAT the Small Stuff” We (OBAMA) is leadin, So LET The LOSERS TALK CRAZY…..WE have a BIGGER PICTURE to focus on and thats WINNING THE ELECTION, TO focus on PETTY UNITELLEGENT COMMENTS , (and Im sure before Nov 4th) We WILL HERE MORE RACIST DUMB COMMENTS(cause thats what dumb DEFEATED people do when they know there losing)…
God Bless his (Mccain) Out of touch ol ass..
But we lovem”lol

typos typos…got me all passionate this morning cant even type…yall get what im saying…lol

I have so much respect and admiration for Michelle Obama. You can’t train a person to have class. Either it is there or it isn’t, and it comes so natural to the Obamas. No matter what happens in November, they are my first family!

To Obama People, I’m sure you’ve heard that someone shouted “terrorist” and “kill him” when Barack Obama’s name was mentioned at a McCain rally. It really upset me, but as you said we have to stay focused.

Barack and Michelle’s strengths are McCain’s weaknesses and the people see that. Ice queen Cindy would embarrass herself in a conversation with Michelle O about the issues.

MICHELLE OBAMA IS NOTHING BUT FIRST CLASS. SHE MAKES US SO VERY PROUD. THE OBAMA’S REPRESENT THE AMERICAN FAMILY THE AMERICAN DREAM. THEY ARE ONE AMERICA. GOD PUT YOU GUYS TOGETHER PLEASE DON’T EVER GET SIDE TRACK FROM THAT. YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL AND YOU ARE A BLESSING TO US AS BLACK AMERICANS AND AS AMERICANS. MICHELLE I JUST LOVE THE WAY YOU SUPPORT YOUR HUSBAND AND HE HAS YOUR BACK TO. YOU WERE GREAT ON LARRY KING LAST NIGHT. ALSO I DON’T HATE ON THE MCCAINS BUT I THINK YOU GUYS HAVE MORE RESPECT FOR THEM THAN THEY HAVE FOR YOU. BUT THATS OKAY. BECAUSE THE PEOPLE ARE VERY SMART AS YOU CAN SEE BY EARLY POLLS. PEOPLE THE OBAMA’S HAVE HAD OUR BACK FROM DAY ONE PLEASE PLEASE HAVE THERE’S ON NOVEMBER 4, 2008. DON’T LET THEM DOWN. DON’T LET AMERICA DOWN IT IS TIME FOR CHANGE.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is something about a respectable, humble, mature women with pressence and likeability. The fact that her and Barrack are holding down a strong family(while the elections are going on) make me glad to be alive to witness the “good” possibilities of all that is transpiring in the election. We are all witnessing how GOOD politics should be handled.

I love,love, love Michelle! She is the epitome of class and grace. She knows how to support her husband in a poised and polished way not overshadowing the cause. Go Obama 2008!

@#5 - Sasha - I said the same thing on anotha post about Bey! ROFLMAO

#24 - I didn’t know Michelle was an AKA! .. hmm

and Cindy McCain does speak out. TO SMEAR OBAMA AT A PALIN RALLY!!!!!!!!

WATCH IT HERE:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HKz9Mup_1g

DUMB BROAD.

@8 In the sixities they had a group I think it was called the underground weathermen or something like that, and they bombed some buildings in America. They had plans to bomb they Pentagon and some other top security buildings when they got caught. Now mind you when this took place Barack Obama was 8 or 9 and didn’t even live in the country.

Then twenty plus years later Obama met him and they were on a board together in Chicago, founded by, a staunch consevative Republican. And he held a coffee meeting for Obama when he first got into politics like 15 years or so ago. Now he is a professor at one of the most prestigious colleges in the world and appparently a respectable citizens. But the McCain camp has no ideas and no plans for the future so they have to make a situation where there is no situation.

That is Bill Ayers summed up. So you know what you have to do on November 4, 2008.

Obama/Biden 2008/2012

I forgot what I was originally going to say. I saw that Larry King interview last nite and he kept trying to get her to say something negative, but, you just can’t take the class away from this woman. She is so ready to be first lady.

There was no reason to be upset about the that one” comment. I doubt it was meant to be offensive McCain was using his usual comic sarcasm. I didn’t take offense to it it was a small dis rather then a racist comment.

It’s no suprise Michelle responded just as any woman with class and intelligence. She is an educated woman and has the ability to articulate herself in any conversation or Q&A moment.

She is so poised, it’s inspiring.

********I like that Michelle didn’t find the comment, “That One” offensive. So much ********important stuff to think about than something as small as that. And I love the ********fact that she’s out and about doing interviews and speaking to the people and ********not just staying behind the scenes.

Michelle Obama > Sarah Palin+ Cinidi Mc Cain…..nuff said.

typos lmao sorry

Michelle Obama was so poised and applaudable last night on the show. She answered the questions so intelligently and came across as a confident potential first lady. Her answers did not seem rehearsed and neither did she seem upset by any of the questions Larry put before her.
They said behind every good man is a great woman and she is definitely Proof. GO Michelle.

WE need to take a page from the Obamma’s and conduct ourselves with class and “intellegent vigilance”. Do not fall in to the trap of believing that Obamma has the election in the bag. WE ALL MUST GO OUT AND VOTE FOR CHANGE! DO NOT JUST GO AND REGISTAR- YOU MUST GO OUT AND VOTE AS WELL! BLACK, WHITE , RED, BROWN PURPLE AND YELLOW- we must change the direction this country is going for our children! IT IS UNFORTUNATE THAT PEOPLE WANT TO PLAY THE RACE CARD. WE AS BLACKS NEED OTHER BROTHERS AND SISTERS TO STAND WITH US! LET’S NOT GET IT TWISTED. BE SMART ON HOW WE SHOW ABOUT HOW WE SHOW OUR SUPPORT!
MICHELLE IS DEFINITELY A RIDE OR DIE WOMAN THAT REPRESENTS THE BEST OF WOMANHOOD! AND SHINES AS AN EXAMPLE FOR ALL!

I love Michelle Obama! As for the comments about black people’s lacks of comments, I think that generally Americans are more concerned with celebrities than with elections. Certainly, this election has changed things, but overwhelming Americans (all Americans) tend to know and be more interested in who’s wearing what to where than politics. But I do resent the suggestion that somehow black folks are just lounging around reading only about celebrities. There’s a time and place for all things. Black people are registering to vote and becoming increasingly interested in politics and that’s a great thing. But have you stopped to think that the most politically minded black folks aren’t commenting on concreteloop, but rather are going to more political blogs to engage in deeper discussions. I’m just saying, let’s focus on the positive … that’s what Michelle Obama would do:)

I love Michelle Obama! Very classy, educated and sophisticated woman!

You guys we have to truly “PRAY” for Obama and his family we can’t get confident.
McCain and Palin may not be mentioning him on the trail, but they have just released an Ayers ad, they want to keep the terrorist stuff in peoples mind.
Sara Palin says she is a Christian, her actions, speech, are all totally diabolically opposed to Christian concepts as outlined in the bible.
Why does not the Body of Christ call her out on this.
She reminds me of Jezebel in the bible who hated Elijah so much she single handily wanted to destroy him and McCain reminds me of Saul who so hated David with passsion that he sought to kill him.
I wonder who is counseling her spiritually.
She and MCain both hate Obama, the things she has said derived only form hate and she stirs up anger and hstility and murder at her meetings, because that is her spirit.
If anyone reading this knows how to pray, then we must do it.
I pray Obama’s character is what puts him over because integrity and character are big things with God he does not see or choose like man but he looks on the heart and Obama’s heart is right.
When the righteous rule the people rejoice.
They have so much class and dignity and respect for others, I pray the Lord blesses him and his family for all their hard word and how they have carried themselves during this time of persecution.
VOTE for “THAT ONE” me and my entire family is.
They are a wonderful testimony for our society.

CINDY MCCAIN IS A WHORE

The Mcain Camp is being so dirty right not .. it makes me want to puke,

I love Michelle she is so reasonnable. poised and smart.

And people need to get their priority straight because we dont take our future in hand believe no one is going to do it for us. leave beyonce alone and start caring about the real issues/ out there.

As for the person asking abou the Ayers controversy… do some research.. but it just basically republicans being who they r are. but learning about it would do you good

********While watching the debate and hearing that comment, I did not for one
********second look at McCain’s comment as racisit. However, I was taken aback
********when he said this, b/c to me it was just flat out disrespectful. You know your
********opponents name, address him as such. This goes to show you, McCain is
********is feeling the burn and I hate to see what he has up his sleeve w/i these
********next few weeks. I have a feeling we’re going to see some outlandish behavior
********from the McCain/Palin campagian. BTW could somebody please put Palin
********away somewhere, she just be talking and makes absolutely no sense!!!
*******She’s is no more qualified to run this country then my thumb is. And that’s real!

michelle obama is ugly thats for damn sure…i guess thats the closest thing hussein could come to a woman…lmao

I am really getting tired of these bullshit ass interviews she is doing. I understand that Barack & Michelle are not allowed to get angry because they will SCARE middle America but say something. These Klan members are calling your husband a terrorist and you say nothing. You don’t point out that Sara Palins husband up till 2002 was part of an Alaska moment to get excluded from the U.S. The leader of that organization hates America & the gov’t. Sarah isn’t just paling around around with people who hate America, she slepts with them. The reason the Klan, opps I mean Republicans are hitting so hard is cause they no the Obamas are going to do the same weak ass shit Gore and Kerry did…….try to run out the clock for the next 4 weeks the way the Texans tried to run out the clock on Peyton Manning & the Colts this past Sunday. The Colts came back to win after being down by 17pts in the 4th quarter. If the Klan no nothing else, they no how to WIN!

I hate to go there but I bet Hillary Clinton would have hit Cindy (the JUMPOFF), the old man, the Palins and their entire white trash family with a ton of bricks that would have left them with Vertigo for the rest of their lives.

I just got schooled on how McCain left his first wife for Cindy. I’m still shaking my head and that scandal.

First Lady, Michelle Obama……I like how that sounds and looks!

*****I agree, we must pray for Obama. I am in intense prayer that God give him
*****more than the title, but the judgement to lead this nation down a godly path.
*****I pray that he blesses us by being a wise ruler. May Michelle be the queen that
****I know she is. Lets keep praying saints. They will try to steal this election, but
****what God has for you, you can’t get around. Pray everyday.

I don’t know if you guys know this, but African American artist dee adams, who is a very cool abstract painter has just released a really cool free poster promoting the Obama campaign. I saw these up in New York in midtown and you can print your own smaller versions here:

Register to vote!

I missed it! Maybe I can see on youtube or something…but based on the other appearances/interviews I have seen her, she is a beautiful, intelligent, and sophisticated woman. I would love to see her as our First Lady, she has that relatable factor that no one else and I mean No One Else, (like they like to claim Palin has). Yes McCain’s wife has devoted her services to underdeveloped countries, but I’m not getting that relatable factor, though I cannot write her off because of her priviliged background, I just do not feel that she can relate to All women. No she hasn’t been as vocal as Michelle Obama, but she has definitely been behind McCain, she’s everywhere he is, and that’s probably because Cindy McCain knows how she got John…she better watch out!

Michelle is a class act! She exemplifies a strong, beautiful, intelligent woman that should be an example to ALL women. I love her.

@Somer, what would that prove. I’m glad he’s not stooping to their level because in the long run, all these attacks again Barack are going to turn people off. He wants to stay focused on the real issues and not play tic for tac. That’s my take on it.

I wanna meet her one day.

LMAO @ all the prayer warriors.

If “God” cared so much about America, why did he stand on the sidelines and watch the blood of millions of blacks drench the American soil?

Where was he when the Indians were getting annihilated by a bunch of duplicitous white cowards?

Why does he watch the American “force for good” go kill innocent mothers and children of other civilizations in the name of “freedom”

Overly religious blacks just crack me up. The people that sold you that crock shit use it to exploit you till today. Personally, if I could raise dough quick like Barack, I would be running a hedge fund. This country is going down either way, and the last thing it deserves is a black man trying to save it.

———@Zulu

———I have no idea what your mental or spiritual leanings are, but you definitely hit
———the nail on the head regarding the “prayer warriors”, lol. What always makes
———me laugh is the total, absolute lack of understanding these so-called “black
———devout Christians” have regarding the Most High and his Word. The Most High
———does not hear the prayer of a person that wants to save a wicked kingdom.
———When you want to save a wicked kingdom, it’s so that you can continue to be
———wicked within it. Look at the story of Abraham and Sodom and Gomorrah. He
———begged the Most High to save those five cities and the Most High did not
———because it was not worth saving. The same thing with America. Not only, as
———you touched on, has this country totally eviscerated the Native American, it
———has mentally and spiritually destroyed the black and hispanic man and woman,
———particularly the black man. Many black people give the Most High a bad name
———and his Word a bad name because of their overwhelming simplicity and
———outright stupidity in regard to what they think they believe. The fact of the
———matter is that America is heaven to these broken down negroes, and they
———cannot envision a land or kingdom without the white man and women leading
———them around by a leash, smh.

Even though the Obama’s can rise above and ignore McCain and his BS, I thought refering to Sen. Obama as that one was very disrespectful!! That old man is starting to loose his damn mind!!!

Furthermore they are starting to play dirty, trying to rile up all the crackers and rednecks, about Obama, being different, not like the rest of America, what they mean is he’s black and intellegent and the best hope for the future of the US!!!

OBAMA 08!!!

@64……………That is why we lost the last 2 elections. You don’t have to sling mud as hard but you have to defend yourself. Barack need a mouth piece just like McCain has in Palin.

I wish she was running for Pres!! I have been so impressed with all the amazing women in politics these days. It is so important to have women in positions of power (due to talent, not affirmative action!) so we can have all points of view represented.

I know Michelle said she won’t play an active role in the Obama administration but I am sure she will be front and center talking about education, literacy and other issues affecting America’s children.

Judah — For the sake of all humanity, please refrain from posting ever again.

EVERY TIME you post, it’s some rant about how someone else isn’t a Christian - and I suppose you think you are with your many judgmental and profanity ridden posts.

How did you gain the notion that someone has a “lack of understanding” a.k.a is ignorant from their one post? You disgust me and are a disgrace to African-Americans.

I mean, you have the NERVE to tell someone that God doesn’t hear a prayer? What Bible do you read?

You like to give the impression that you want black people to “do better” or move forward, but in actuality you are trying to place us in a cage. The shade is that you are the only one in it.

I will say this, I have been actually working so I havent placed my comment-SASHA…but I feel you, I hope these Beyoncites go out and vote as well as buy her
damn CD. OKay with that said, I thought McCain’s comment was more of an
attempt to be an ass then a racist, like Obama knows nothing because he has less
years (not experience because as a young person I know I could run my office better then these old dopes who have 20 years on me) in the Senate addressing these issues. McCain is going right back were his butt belongs in the Senate, that’s all I kept thinking. And I have a solution of Soc Sec, like McCain I think its easy to solve, I just need two dollars from everyone in the US for the next ten years and an off shore account. Did anyone hear that mess. I actually studied the Social Security issue while in grad school it is not an easy system to overhaul nor is their congressional support for any of the current ideas, so I do not know who he thinks he is fooling but its not me or anyone else with half a brain.

OBAMA 08 or BUST (keep them pennies and go back to stacking chips under your mattress because its going to be a bumpy ride if those idiots (M-cat and P-dog) get into the White House)

She is a positive role model for all young women. I am so very proud of her as well as Mr. Obama. I have always been proud to be black, but they just make me take my pride to a whole different level. Please get out and vote, our children need a chance. I love all of you and stay positive.

@59 This is not a hip-hop beef her husband is trying to be the leader of the free world. What would you have her say about ignorance. She did just what she was suppose to do. It pisses people of more when you don’t comment on their foolishness. Learn that in life and you would have figured out the way to survive and succeed. You think being where they are in life that is the first time they have experienced foolishness like this. They have been calling him that now for almost 2 years. And he is a head in the polls now by 11 points. So they are handling just the way they are suppose to.

I voted today!!!

Future First Lady lookin good!
