Is there some class oath white people belong to? Cause last time I checked someone living in the city on minimum wage has the same problem poor rural whites have. The difference is, and Michelle would agree, is that the economic gap still affects minorities at a higher rate.America is the greatest country on earth if you're Michele Obama. But if you spent the afternoon marching in the streets because cops keep shooting people in your neighborhood, and went home and saw Michele say it's the greatest country on earth, and then see the crowd go wild...You don't think that's going to rub you the wrong way? And you're right. White people in poor areas didn't seem too excited about being a part of the greatest country on earth either. And they didn't vote the way they did in 2012, either.
I thought at the time it was a huge political blunder. What's even odder, is back when the Newsroom episode aired, the white people cheering like crazy when Michele said we were the best in the world were sharing the Newsroom clip on social media like crazy. It was pretty surreal as an observer.
