Clinton Bush Haiti Fund: Donate Now
Custom Search

He talked about supporting working women with tax credits, support for child care and after school programs, and his support for the Fair Pay Restoration Act that would help provide equal pay for women. He talked about the women in his life, his mother and grandmother, his wife and daughters.

“I am here because of my wife Michelle, who is the rock of the Obama family and who worked her way up from modest roots on the South Side of Chicago, and who’s juggled jobs and parenting with more skill and grace than anybody that I know and looks good doing it too,” he said to laughter. “Michelle and I want our two daughters, Malia and Sasha, to grow up in an America where they have the freedom and opportunity to live their dreams and raise their own families.”

He also praised Clinton and said that he hoped to work with her in the future on issues that are important to women.

Whether he is being sincere or if he is only trying to repair his image is still up for debate. I for one hope that this is more than just an attempt to make us forget about "Get over it."

Obama will prove to be a very strong advocate for women and children, and a poor choice of words should not sway anyone from supporting him.
