FROM BARACK OBAMA'S WEBSITE AND NEWSLETTER:
On this 88th anniversary of women's suffrage, Michelle Obama joined several of the most prominent women leaders in the country -- including Senator Hillary Clinton and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi -- at a gathering with Emily's List this afternoon in Denver.
Michelle spoke to a packed house of primarily women who were brimming with enthusiasm and are ready to elect a president who will stand strong on women's rights.
