Michelle Obama has at least one devoted fan -- Beyonce. The singer has recorded a video of a letter she wrote to the first lady in April in which she calls Mrs. Obama "the ultimate example of a truly strong African American woman." And in a savvy bid for young voters, the video has been released by President Obama's re-election campaign. Wait for the :15 mark in the video below to see a clip!


"She is a caring mother, she's a loving wife, while at the same time, she is the First Lady," Beyoncé, 30, says in the video. "No matter the pressure, and the stress of being under the microscope, she's humble, loving, and sincere." She continues, "Michelle, thank you so much for every single thing that you do for us. I am proud to have my daughter grow up in a world where she has people like you to look up to."

When the letter was first posted online in April, Mrs. Obama, 48, responded to Beyonce on Twitter: "Thank you for the beautiful letter and for being a role model who kids everywhere can look up to." Sounds like a love-fest to us! Do you think the video will help the president's re-election campaign?

    There are all kinds of political folks in the Hollywood community. One major reason is the lack of intellectual real estate among American entertainers. Just think about it. They do very little thinking on their own. They have their words given to them to act, you know, they are never required to think. They must be totally comfortable with Obama because he's in the very same position. His words come to him from his teleprompter. When it goes dead or stops, Obama stumbles all over himself. What we see on the screen from Hollywood is a character that these folks are borrowing for their acting. What we see of Obama is a shill for money-men who are controling Obama and putting forth an ideology that will return their money to them 10 fold. That's what this has been all about, power through money.

    Maybe so, I took it at face value and was thinking it was all about trying to snag the young black music folks into voting for Obama, or at the very least "showing up" to vote at all.

    You're right about losing their fan base. I will not pay to see anything from flaming liberals like Fonda, Clooney, Penn, et al. Doesn't bother them because they don't know, but it gives me a lot of pleasure to know that my money won't be going to them for their air-head causes and candidates.

    Ms. Obama is anti-American. Remember when she said "this is the first day I am proud to be American" and thenway she conducts herself when there is a flag raising or the national Antheme being played. She does not have my respect......

    1. It's "Mrs.", not "Ms." She's a married woman.

    2. Michelle Obama is more American than you are, even before she became FLOTUS.

    3. The rest of your tragic & misspelled TOXNews dribble doesn't earn any respect from any true American.

    I've met Beyonce three times & Jay-Z twice. We don't live next door to each other but, wealthy Americans who don't support Romney and/or Reaganomics make me happy.

    Funny how people who call President Obama everything but a Child of God (as if they know him & his politics so well) have no idea what they're dribbling about.

    It's like... the whole nation and parts of the world know Romney and the neocons Stole the election from Paul and they just bent over to it. Now that Paul is for sure still in the race will people still honor the fraud..? Or will we get our acts together and stop letting criminals tell us who is our boss...? If you want Paul vote Paul... Mitt can't beat Obama and the people might eject Obama after he wins. Be on the best side of history...

    I understand your frustration. Even though the thought of Joe Lieberman as VP is nauseating, it would've been better than Dick Cheney.

    I'm just happy that neither Willard Mitt Romney nor Ronald Ernest Paul will ever be POTUS.

    I hope you're right. I'm trying to bet on the one who won't have us killed in this depression coming at the end of the year or so. Obama is a guy with no problem killing Americans... you think he exempts you..? A group of madmen (the ground soldiers) with orders are going to decide if you are a terrorist/dissenter or not. You better hope he doesn't send the wrong group to ''stabilize'' your neighborhood when the food stops flowing. Have you studied the survivor horrors of katrina disaster..? An unacceptably big chunk of it was police and military killing/harassing/robbing and raping helpless civilians. HLS has released criteria for what is a threat to America and it describes anyone who disagrees with anything official. Are you aware of the war powers obama has over citizens...? at any moment he can start locking down just about anything he wants. Our money, transit, waterways, communications he can assume power over now during peace time says some newer legislation and bills. You are at the complete mercy of the officer holding president of the united states. Make sure he doesn't want you dead. Who will come save you when it's America genociding its self..? America..? Obama kills Americans without trial on record... Why are you special if you meet the vague criteria..? There will be a nation of ''You'' cheering your death at first, believing the propaganda and feeling exempt... then it will be their turn...

    False & disingenuous claim.

    However, I am curious of your solutions to your perceived 'laundry list' of problems you claim that this Adminstration is creating.

    Here's the list, the end is the scariest part. Not only won't it end for 6 months the decision can't even be reviewed. Essentially The President won't need a reason for 6 mos but he will essentially ''Warden'' America In the meantime. Pick the right president.
