Michelle Obama to Serve as…Grand Marshal of NASCAR 400?

Michelle Obama to Serve as... Grand Marshal of NASCAR 400?Billed as part of first lady Michelle Obama’s “Joining Forces” initiative for military families — and perhaps as a way to woo average American voters — Mrs. Obama and Vice President Joe Biden’s wife, Dr. Jill Biden, will serve as Grand Marshals of the November 20 season-ending NASCAR Ford 400.

According to the following White House statement, NASCAR will participate in the Joining Forces initiative:

As part of the season-ending NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship race, NASCAR will rally its millions of fans at the speedway and online to serve military families through the holiday season by asking them to visit www.NASCAR.com/Unites and JoiningForces.gov to find service opportunities and ideas to give back to those who serve our country.

The White House says some 5,000 active duty and retired military personnel will attend the event. Military families are then invited to a barbecue where Mrs. Obama and Dr. Biden are slated to speak alongside NASCAR officials and drivers.

White House Dossier adds:

Mrs. Obama, who has incurred some bad publicity for taking luxurious jaunts to South Africa and Spain while often being photographed in expensive clothing and accoutrements, has lately been spotted shopping at Target and hanging out at the baseball park, attending the first game of the World Series.

The Ford 400 is held at Homestead-Miami Speedway in Homestead, Florida. Florida is perhaps the most critical presidential battleground state in the country.

But Mrs. Obama’s presence at one of the biggest NASCAR events of the year will surely be noticed throughout the region where the sport if popular, which includes many other critical swing states like Ohio, North Carolina, Virginia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Missouri and Missouri.

Indeed, since Mrs. Obama has been making the rounds at the local Target store, critics might argue that the campaign to appear “ordinary” and engage Americans in “fly-over country,” thereby securing their vote for 2012, seems to be well under way.

    Good, because it frees up more time for me now that NASCAR totally sold out their fans. Do they (NASCAR) actually think Barry and “Empty” Joe” and their families really give a flying fig about NASCAR and their fans?

    If you see who owns the television rights to NASCAR’s T.V. rights and website… Ted Turner (married to that traitor Jane Fonda). Talk about revulsion especially finding this crap out on, of all days, Veteran’s Day! These are sick people folks.

    BTW I SALUTE all you VETS out there, and thank you for your service, also!

      You gotta love the free market and capitalism. Yes, NASCAR didn’t have to ask her to attend. But they know their audience. They know that most of their viewers and their sponsor’s viewers support President Obama. So of course they ask her to attend.

      It’s not a political statement. It’s a capitalistic statement. They know their viewers, they know their sponsors, and they are in the business of making money.

      My friends we need to keep in mind that nascar had also began going down the wrong road when they began using ethanol.

      As for the troll you guys love to get distracted by, jzs, he has shown who he is and what he does here clearly.

      As King Saul asked for someone with a familiar spirit, jzs does the same thing. Looking to a demonic spirit within to win BIG money at such a consequential risk as tossing coins says a great deal of his all powerfulness. I didn’t hear anything about winning millions on the lottery that has much more of a of a losing bet than a 50-50 coin toss.
      Much like Miss Cleo and her psychic friends hotline who did not see her bankruptcy and end coming so goes the way of this poor person.
      We are strongly warned in God’s Word not to consort with demons, demonic spirits, and those that employ them. Their way is already paved for them. Merely point the way of Truth to others and move on. These types will either be convicted by the Holy Spirit or try to take as many as they can with them.

      Thank you for your service Garygromele!! You are totally correct. Barrack Obama is a Marxist and a racist. I fairly certain that Michele is as well. Maybe she will stop at Target for beer and chips and some hats before attendi ng. Some of the comments have said that we need to support our veterans. And we do!! I donate monthly to the Wounded Warrior Project. We need to let NASCAR know how offensive this is. Barry and Michelle are not Americans. They are globalists. He wants to be re-elected so he can finish the “fundamental transformation” of the USA. More along the lines of a dictatorship. What do you get when you cross a penis with a patato? Barry Obama.

      Here’s how the conversation went:
      DNC stratagist: Ok Mr. President…Michele. We have a strategy to get you infront of the “middle class”. We want you to marshall a NASCAR event….
      Michele: Are you crazy? Those knuckle draggers will kill me!
      DNC stratagest: No thats the beauty of the plan…We are putting you at an event where they are honoring the military. You know those knuckle draggers love the military, and they respect the office of the president even though they hate who is in in there now and you are the first lady, so what are they going to do boo you and dishonor the troops? The office of the president? No they will sit there and politely applaud as you drive by. Because you know they won’t disrespect the military.Or thwe office of the president. And we can fool some people into thinking you are just like one of them…….
      Michele:….Brilliant!!! absoloutly Brilliant!!!!

      I may have missed a word or 2 but my guess is that’s how the conversation went……
