"  Last night, Michelle Obama kicked off the Democratic National Convention by making a speech about her husband, presidential candidate Barack Obama. This was one of the most important speeches of the convention (and for Obama in this race!), because Michelle introduced him in a more personal light to the American public, telling stories from her life growing up and her ensuing romance with Barack. At one point in the speech, Michelle even recognized the important role Senator Hillary Clinton \u2014 the former rival of Barack Obama for the Democratic nomination \u2014 has played in the election. &amp;quot;People like Hillary Clinton ... put those 18 million cracks in the glass ceiling, so that our daughters \u2014 and sons \u2014 can dream a little bigger and aim a little higher,&amp;quot; she said. Michelle&amp;#039;s two daughters, Sasha and Malia, joined their mother onstage after the speech to greet their father as he came up on the big screen and said: &amp;quot;Now you know why I asked [Michelle] out so many times \u2014 you want a persistent President!&amp;quot; Check out a clip from the speech below:      What do you think of Michelle&amp;#039;s speech? Do you think she would make a good first lady? Sound off below! "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
