Roses for Michelle?
Edited on Mon May-12-08 11:58 AM by IDemo
I think it would be a great idea for a time honored DU tradition to be revived for our next First Lady, Michelle Obama. I know that sentiment may not be shared by all DU'ers, but for those who have witnessed her strength and grace under fire (not to mention loveliness :loveya:) during this unbelievable primary season, it would be nice to honor her with roses. I don't think it's too early for such a gesture, even if the nomination is only "presumed" at this point and the general election six months away. It isn't about the politics, anyway, but about recognizing a woman whom I believe has made and will make a positive difference in the years to come.

Thoughts?

1. Things like that are usually based on news or an event.
The time will come.

3. I don't know that it necessarily requires a "Helen moment"
or that it needs to be because of winning the nomination or even the GE. We seem to be at a moment where the primary can begin to be left behind and the run up to the GE battle has yet to ramp up. Just seems like a good point in time, but not arguing there may be better to come! :)
