Michelle Obama Teams with BET to Urge 'Women of Color' to Vote: 'We Lead, People Follow'

Former first lady Michelle Obama is joining forces with Black Entertainment Television to urge women of color to vote in the 2018 midterm elections.

“We’ve all seen the difference we can make when we choose to cast our ballots and we’ve seen the consequences when we don’t bother to show up to the polls,” Obama, who serves as co-chair of the national nonprofit effort When We All Vote, says in the one-minute clip.

The former first lady asks women to assist with registering their friends and family so they may be eligible to vote on Election Day. “Women of color know how to get things done for our families, our communities, and our country,” she says. “When we use our voices, people listen. When we lead, people follow.”

Michelle, why do you only encourage "people of color" to vote? Aren't you still proud to be an American?

She is as racist as her husband, good example to her children why does everything she says go back to women of "color" not women in general.

Only people of color? Why not ALL American people regardless of sex, race, or religion?

And we wonder why?

Is that hair under her arms. Can't afford be a razor is that a trait of her people.

Because she and her husband hate white people. His term in office was to become wealthy and screw white Americans. Why do you think there is a BIG (blacks in Government) organization in U S
Federal Government. There is no WIG (Whites in Government). BIG members make way over 100,000 (some don't but most) and they hold their meetings on Government time. Let a white person do that.

Ironically you just posted yesterday where that black contestant claimed Trump was dividing the nation. How does she explain this about the Obama's?

Policies under the Obama's should lead all people, including those of color to mark the Republican candidate's box.

Good, let her round them up. When they get in the booth they will vote Trump.

If you google Michele Obama sexuality, it will tell you in full detail. She did not give birth to those girls either. They were adopted by from their best friends!! I didn't believe it until read it myself. All I
can say is wow. She needs to come clean about who she is before telling others how they should behave or who to vote for!! Her and Obama are the ones who brought racism back. I am sorry I ever voted for him.
