And y'all want a stereotypical angry black woman as 2nd in command to an inexperienced leader?

Ask yourself why those children are so Obese? What factors have changed so greatly in the past 20 years?
Nutrition....Monsanto...Cheap, industrialized food that trades corn syrup, sugar, and chemicals for what actually used to be FOOD and real FLAVOR.
And yes ...secondly, activity. You and I are of a generation that used to spend our afternoons OUTSIDE. Parents hover over thier kids these days. Most families in my nieghborhood used to have big bells hanging by the back door. When it was time to eat, we each knew the sound of our bell...till then we were running wild in the backyards. Now parents strap thier kids in elbow pads, knee pads, helmet and trot beside them down the sidewalk as they ride thier bikes.
Michelle Obama has started programs both encouraging kids to get outside and be active as well as nutrition.
I have no issue with the first lady trying to make a difference and only a political and cynical mind would have issue IMO.
Kids often toss the apple from their lunch trays and dive straight into the cookies.
But, now cafeteria cameras can track what they’re really eating.
Health officials are using a $2 million federal grant to install cameras that will track eating habits at five San Antonio, Texas elementary schools. The camera program will analyze the food on the trays for kids whose parents give permission. Parents can get reports about what their kids ate in school. The cameras will record what the students put on their lunch tray. A computer program analyzes the food to calculate the amount of food and calories. Then it will also take an image of the students’ trays when they are done – this will enable calculation of the nutrition that the children consumed.

Now lets attack the first lady for trying to use her position to make a difference.
It's not what she's doing, it's where she's doing it.
You don't want to go down that path. The things that the last President and family did in the white house...and to be fair most every POTUS n Family before that...Do you want to know who has spent the night in the Lincoln Bedroom?
A program about fitness and weight loss is the least of it. Don't make me pull up comparisons.

Anything is better than a stereotypical bigot on ATS. Perhaps you could enlighten me with a description of the racist sterotype you are suggesting?
I hope your delusions keep you warm at night. You are evidently oblivious to the good she is (trying) to do for the American people.

I'm confused.
The First Lady is helping promote good health in a country that is currently in an obesity epidemic and this is bad?
It is tradition for First Lady's to champion non-partisan causes.
FLOTUS Obama is carrying that tradition.
Where's the problem?
She's into santeria... Island voodoo...soon after they moved her onto the 3rd floor she started having rituals,attempting to contact the dead husband...Uncle O threw a hissy fit[that was back when he cared what the People of America thought]and put the word out that she was to tone it down...prob never find mention of it now in the MSM but it made a splash on 09....crazy old biddy cutting chicken throats and hanging them upside down...in he White House
