The First Lady Can Move

It's 6 a.m. and Michelle Obama is already up and doing the Dougie and the Running Man. Get your ass out of bed!

Fantastic!

Trying (and failing) to picture Nancy Regan or Barbara Bush doing this...

Republicans hate Michelle because she is truly an amazing First Lady!

She'd also make an amazing First Woman President. Far above anything the repugs have to offer, male or female.

Why are we surprised that Michele Obama can dance? She is obviously very comfortable inside her own body at all times, not just now.

Although it is nice to see a woman who respects herself without having to conform to everyone else's opinion of what her behaivor should be.

She's a woman who'll leave a lasting impression on women, especially of color, for time to come. If we finally have a female president, it'll be because of her and Hillary. I love how she laughed during the running man as if she was thinking "damn this is old school"

Oh I love this image of our leaders being people who can dance. America deserves to have some dance-leadership. What a great example to all the girls, too.

Love it! Having spent most of my life studying dance and a good deal of it performing, the best way to not look foolish is to go all out. And, you can see the difference between our First Lady and the woman next to her. Michelle Obama radiates beauty even when she isn't sure of the next move. Stunning woman.

Wow. That outfit was so hideous that I totally justified undressing her with my eyes as a case of self-defense.
