“They don’t remember how many punches we took to get there,” Michelle Obama says

Michelle Obama said it was important for her to tell the story of how many punches she and former President Obama took to get to the White House. “As I got more popular, that’s when people of all sides – Democrats and Republicans – tried to take me out by the knees and the best way to do it was to focus on the one thing people were afraid of – the strength of a black woman.” Source
