Trump’s newest misstep: turning his attention to Michelle Obama
http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/trumps-newest-misstep-turning-his-attention-michelle-obamaBy most measures, President Obama is the second most popular political figure in the country. Who’s first? His wife, First Lady Michelle Obama.
For Democratic candidates, that’s good news. Not only is Michelle Obama an active campaigner as Election Day draws closer, she’s also demonstrated an ability to deliver some of the year’s most compelling and poignant addresses.
For some reason, this combination of factors gave Donald Trump a very bad idea, which he put into practice this afternoon....
“We have a president, all he wants to do is campaign. His wife, all she wants to do is campaign. And I see how much his wife likes Hillary,” Trump said. “But wasn’t she the one that originally started the statement, if you can’t take care of your home – right? – you can’t take care of the White House or the country.”

Surprised Malia didn't get into Yale. 
-K-A, Y'85 
And dear FSM, would we have loved to have her at Cal!! 
Although the UC system accepts very few out-of-state undergrads, around 5% of the total.
They have big enough endowments that they can offer better aid packages than most other schools, so as to attract the best students regardless of richy rich status. Yale '85 here, and mos def not richy rich.
