Michelle Obama coming to Greensboro Thursday
The following came from the Obama campaign after I went to sleep last night. Michelle Obama is making two public North Carolina stops, one in Charlotte and one in Greensboro Thursday:
RALEIGH – Michelle Obama, wife of Democratic presidential nominee Senator Barack Obama, will return to North Carolina Thursday, where she will host a women’s economic roundtable in Charlotte, followed by a North Carolina Women for Obama rally in Greensboro.Mrs. Obama began this series of roundtable discussions early in the primary season, to hear firsthand the stories of working women who have struggled to support their families through eight years of failed economic policies. In discussions across the country, Mrs. Obama has shared her husband’s plans to make Washington work for working families, and grow the overall economy by strengthening the middle class.
Mrs. Obama’s last visit to North Carolina was the day before the Democratic primary in May; she hosted a roundtable discussion with military spouses at Fort Bragg to discuss the unique challenges facing military spouses and their families.
The Greensboro stop will be at the Carolina Theatre, 310 S. Greene Street. Doors open 1:30 p.m.
