Being the First Lady of the United States is already a huge position to have in America and Michelle Obama utilized that position to make an impact.

She inspires so many African American women across America to follow their dreams and to always let their voice be heard. Although she is not in office now, she sill continues to run her organizations and speaks to groups of children about following their dreams. Michelle Obama definitely broke the barrier in American Politics
