>> HE HAS A LOT OF INFLUENCE 
OVER A VERY DEEP DONOR NETWORK.
>> LET MOVE ON TO MICHELLE 
OBAMA'S TRIP OVERSEAS.
THE WHITE HOUSE HAD SAID 
MICHELLE OBAMA WAS GOING TO HAVE
A FAMILY VISIT TO CHINA, SHE WAS
NOT GOING TO GET INTO POLITICS 
AT ALL.
WE RAISED THE QUESTION AND 
COMPARISON TO HILLARY CLINTON 
BA
BACK. 
>> IN A SPEECH IN DAY JING SHE 
SAID WHEN IT COMES TO EXPRESSING
YOURSELF FREELY, HAVING OPEN 
INFORMATION, WE BELIEVE IT IS 
THE BIRTH RIGHT OF EVERY PERSON 
ON THIS PLANET.
SHE DID DECIDE TO GENTLY AND 
PUBLICLY RAISE OBJECTIONS TO THE
CHINESE PRACTICE.
>> THIS IS PART OF THE REASON 
SHE DOESN'T GET OUT A LOT IN THE
U.S. IN TERMS OF GOING OUT AND 
MAKING SPEECHES THAT CAN SHIFT 
INTO POLICY SPEECHES BECAUSE SHE
TENDS TO A BE A FAIRLY EDGY 
PERSON WHENEVER SHE SAYS 
ANYTHING.
OBAMA HAS ARTICULATED THESE 
POINTS, THESE ARE POINTS THAT 
THE U.S. MAKES ALL THE TIME TO 
CHINA ABOUT FREE PRESS AND WHEN 
MRS. OBAMA SAYS IT, PEOPLE 
LISTEN AND IT NOT JUST A FIELD 
TRIP WITH HER DAUGHTER.
>> I THINK -- SHE HAD TO SAY 
SOMETHING, EVEN DOING IT IN A 
GENTLE WAY, NOT AN OVERBEARING 
MANNER.
NAFS NOT THE FOCUS OF HER
