He would be a proud democrat, like you....The way the first lady uses it, it does..She takes advantage of people's ignorance..Like this idiot congressman who thinks George Wallace was a Republican.The afro americans actually volunteered to move building materials so the Scottish, Irish, and Italian craftsmen could construct and teach the afro american various carpentry skills the afro americans used later for their own businesses.
Partly true...
But in 1803, not many slaves were going out and starting businesses with their new found skills
Nether were they the only ones working to build the white house that narrative is ignorant.
Why do Conservatives struggle with the term "only"
To say that black lives matter does not mean "only" black lives matter
To say slaves built the White House does not mean "only" slaves built the White House
Well, Wallace sure as hell wouldn't be a Democrat today would he? When President Johnson said he'd lose the south for a generation, Wallace was the kind of Democrat he was talking about losing. (Goodbye to bad rubbish)
Oh, and do explain how Mrs Obama's statement "takes advantage of people's ignorance"? What would people be "ignorant" about that you feel needed clarification? What is the importance of pointing out that the slaves were "well fed" when Mrs. Obama was not saying they weren't?
