Stop the madness, stop the comparisons
Stop the madness? Message to newscasters, magazine editors, fashion pundits, and entertainment gossipmongers: Please, please refrain from forced comparisons stacking up fabulous Michelle alongside fantastic Jackie, both portraits of perfection revealing two distinctly differing, spectacularly mesmerizing personalities. Do not minimize the allure and limitless potential of Mrs. Obama, downgrading her charms to retro-competitiveness with Mrs. Kennedy. Each person's unique sense of style, intellectual capabilities and joie de vivre enhance our country's reputation as well as achieve legendary status for these ladies even as we once witnessed decades past and are watching admiringly now.
