700 turn out to hear presidential candidate's wife at St. Norbert College
DE PERE -- Speaking to a standing-room crowd on the St. Norbert College campus this evening, Michelle Obama touted her husband’s background, experience and character as the reason he stands out in a field of candidates who she said represent “the establishment.”
Obama told the Walter Theater audience of more than 700 that her husband, Sen. Barack Obama, had already shattered expectations in this campaign “(winning) in places no one thought he could win.”
Obama, who talked for just under an hour, didn’t touch on specifics of what her husband's presidency would do. Instead — to great applause from the audience — she promised it would be a different brand of leadership.
“Imagine a president who understands cultures different than his own … who understands global poverty,” Obama said. “We have not seen a president in my lifetime with that kind of sensibility.”
