...primaries, I stood in the rain for two hours, waiting to hear Michelle Obama speak. She is Barack's match in every way: brilliant, articulate, patriotic, humorous and dedicated to helping make our country's future better.

The movie's plot pirouettes on the ability...
...tear, blaming all of today's economic problems on plutocrats and multinational corporations. He could distinguish himself as a speaker of unpleasant truths--like the fact that today's high gasoline prices are as much the fault of American drivers as of anybody else.
