Michelle’s first date was a watershed moment. She had imagined Barack would be a strange guy for no other reason than his name and his upbringing in Hawaii. By the conclusion of their first date, she had overcome her reservations and was entirely sold on the man who would go on to become one of the most influential and iconic presidents of the world’s most powerful country. Despite this, Barack still views Michelle to be superior to himself and has advised single men to follow in his footsteps and marry a superior lady in order to strengthen the gene pool. Nothing woos women like talking about biology.
All jokes aside, this pair is an inspiration to many of us, and the beginning of their journey illustrates that even a rocky start can lead to a great partnership that inspires many people all over the world. Don’t give up, and remember that even Barack Obama had to work hard to win over his love!
