he is our player of the game, and he is down on the field with michele tafoya. michele? >> peyton, leading up to this game, you said so many people asked you, are you ready? are you settled? and you told them, i don't know. how does the answer to that question change now? >> well, there's always a lot of unknown going into the first week, michele. it was a very interesting game. i think four possessions going into the fourth quarter. our offense did a good job staying patient. i think we're still trying to form our identity. i think that will happen throughout the season. certainly nice to get a great win against a great pittsburgh team. roethlisberger was awesome on third down. wasn't much fun sitting on the bench there all night. great job on our defense in the end getting that turnover and offense came up big when we had to. >> michele: peyton, you've been out of this for a year. what does this feel like right now? what's going on in your mind? >> obviously, it feels good, michele. like i said, it's just one game, and try to keep it in perspective. i know how hard i'v

that is michelle obama. we have to remember that most first ladies until the television age never gave a speech. among those who have, there has never been a speaker who could deliver what we just saw. it was not a terribly partisan speech. it did not get into nitty gritty divisive politics, the details in politics. she did make some very simple statements about what her husband has delivered in office. what you had in the room was a real powerful connection. it was tangible. it is real. and it is very hard to judge this from where i'm standing but it felt like she was delivering it onscreen also. it was very difficult to be introducing barack obama but it did have that element of introduction. framed in terms of reminder. one of the most striking passages was when she went into a refrain about why she loves barack obama. that is a difficult piece of writing to, for a wife to say publicly. this is why i love this man. it is difficult to make it convincing in a context, in an arena like this. it was, i think,

michelle said let's grow the economy from the middle.ass families, working class families, that's how we get america back on the road to prosperity. >> that's the new deal kind of strategy. they wanted to get democrats to jump to their feet, you talk about lifestyle, contraception, abortion, that's the three subjects tha

no question about, michelle obama is the president's advocate. she's the president's not so secret weapon. >> serving as your first lady is an honor and privilege. >> reporter: when she stepped in the spotlight tonight, michelle obama is taking into prime time a role she's groomed and honed into in the four years in the white house. first, advocate. >> so in the end for barack, these issues aren't political, they're personal, because barack knows what it means when a family struggles. >> reporter: she was a star here, the delegates clearly adore her. a star on a mission. with her husband in the fight of his political life. their future on the line, mrs. obama took her vast national audience into the past. their past, that young couple starting out. >> we learned about dignity and decency. that how hard you work matters more than how much you make. those are the values that barack and i and so many of you are trying to pass on to our own children. that's who we are. >> reporter: and she spoke as only she could, of how the presidency has shaped bar

tafoya. >> michele: a chippy game, alex. we can see your nose. you took a big hit on the final drive. how did you good night fis through the all of that? >> the mentality is stay short sided and with you play at a time and not think too far ahead and defense played lights out and especially the first half. put them in the hole with the kickoff return and turnover and holding them to field goals all day long in the red zone and really helped us. just a matter of kind of plugging along on offense. ups and downs throughout the game. a great group of guys. speaks a lot to the kind of character we got. >> michele: you are flourishing under jim harbaugh. what is it about his coaching that works so well for you? >> it's these guys. michael making me look good tonight. had a bunch of great catches and making me look good, like i said. a combination of everything. i feel as a quarterback a reflection of the guys around you and i got a great group of guys around me making me look good. >> michele: you two connected well on third down

the party really begins here today, tonight, and michelle obama, what is the big test for michelle obama? we know she's practiced, she's a practiced speaker, she's been on the national stage, unlike ann romney, who hit it out of the park with her first effort, really, using teleprompters and all the attention. what is the tactical political effect of michelle obama? >> i think michelle made her debut four years ago in what was an off the chart speech. i think she, because of her closeness obviously with the president and her viewpoint, she can really tell the story of his values, his upbringing, what he believes, and what he wants to do yet for this country. i think she is going to be a powerful and passionate advocate for the president tonight and will give a great speech. >> unlike mitt romney, who needed to have the biography filled in and ann romney was trying to explain just who is this man who has been described variously as robotic and not warm and cuddly to the outside world, at least, president obama has a very high popularity quotient but his big gap is on answering the republi

i think that michelle obama gave a great speech tonight. but there are some really big takeaways here from the democrat national convention. that's what you didn't hear tonight. first of all, you didn't hear president obama or any of his surrogates tonight talking about the fact that americans are not better off than they were four years ago. there's been all kinds of discussions about whether we are better off than we were four year ace go. the reason we went six hours without having one surrogate -- >> would you agree that we are better off than we were 3 1/2 years ago? >> no. because we still have 23 million people unemployed. >> the first half year of barack obama obama was just a financial meltdown. brought on by eight years of republican administration. >> let's go back and look at his promises. we can look at his promises from his convention speech four years ago where he said he was going to create more jobs and get the debt down. i think it is very symbolic of something you didn't hear. the national debt reached $16 trillion. that'

>> she is the same michele robinson i knew back at princeton. >> of course, forgive me, michele robinsonrturing, always a woman willing to give her advice. told me to study hard but study smart. that was great advice. i followed in the footsteps on to law school where i met her future husband. >> and judging by the color of what you're wearing, is it true to say you're more committed to your undergraduate university than your law school some. >> absolutely. i think that it's a pleasure to have and watch both michelle, the first lady, and the president grow into their roles. i think that the president has -- >> i'm afraid -- congressman terri sewell, we have to leave but thank you for your contribution. >> thank you so much. >> we'll be right back. ur cellse throughout our entire lives. ♪ one a day men's 50+ is a complete multi-vitamin designed for men's health concerns as we age. ♪ it has more of seven antioxidants to support cell health. that's one a day men's 50+ healthy advantage. when the doctor told me that i could smoke for the first week... i'm like...yeah, ok... little did i know

tafoya. >> michele: a chippy game, alex. we can see your nose. you took a big hit on the final drive. how did you good night fis through the all of that? >> the mentality is stay short sided and with you play at a time and not think too far ahead and defense played lights out and especially the first half. put them in the hole with the kickoff return and turnover and holding them to field goals all day long in the red zone and really helped us. just a matter of kind of plugging along on offense. ups and downs throughout the game. a great group of guys. speaks a lot to the kind of character we got. >> michele: you are flourishing under jim harbaugh. what is it about his coaching that works so well for you? >> it's these guys. michael making me look good tonight. had a bunch of great catches and making me look good, like i said. a combination of everything. i feel as a quarterback a reflection of the guys around you and i got a great group of guys around me making me look good. >> michele: you two connected well on third down

i mean, she's just michelle. our friendship developed, i think, because we both have an interest in military families. when i met michelle, she said what do you think would be the issue that you are most interested in. and i said, military families. >> i said to jill, i said, that's what i would like to do. that's where it all began. >> vidone 3 tours. it's meant a lot to our family in difficult times just to know that there are folks in the white house, going in the same direction with us. >> whether it be helping homeless veterans through employment, trying to incorporate the military culture into the school system, helping spouses findions, it's all coming together. >> she genuinely seems to care and wants to know what the militaryfa families are going through, so she can make changes on the national level. >> she you don't even ask for much. so we should be able to step up in whatever way we can. >> thew that 1% of the country is serving to protect the freedoms of the other 99% of us. my view is that there is

but i will say, michelle is still michelle. and i think we have a little bit of tape that i want it roll here, of michelle obama visiting a middle school in d.c. >> do we have that? there we go. >> look how cute she is. she's just -- >> she is doing the -- she's dancing. >> how do you know the -- >> know, because michelle obama did it. when the first lady can go to a school like this in d.c. and do the dougy and be herself and be can comfortable, i think that's fundamentally what the american people are relating to. that there is no distance between her public per sonja and public per persona. >> i think her age has something do with it as well. this is a young couple. he was when he came into the oval office. he is a little gray now. having young kids, this is part of her young family and how she behaves. >> what are you expecting from the speech tonight, steve? >> yeah, no, the only point i want it make is i don't think there's been a change in the way michelle obama's been presented to the country from the time barack obama

fraser robinson, these are michelle obama's parents. little michelle on the left and craig robinson and brother on the right. next slide. so this unknown here, who does not appear in the book is a contemporary of mary. so they were born roughly a year apart. he's a mississippi farmer who is noted in 181870s sensors as a 35-year-old who was part of a sensors track that includes a woman named betty wore. betty wore and robert gavin had a child named henry. could you go to the next site? salonga census records from 1870 mississippi, at the last name is at the top in the left corner and you see the household is to cut down for land to see robert l. 34, white farmer. calm down and she is 31, lack farmer, both from virginia, all the way down i know it's not so easy to see there's a henry, for names of. next slide. they are henry shows up in an 1800 cents is. now he is 32 years old. henry, a if you follow down, has one, two, three lines down to eugene sun, black. 10 over 12 meters 10 months old. that eugene gavin is my great grandfather. now g

so did julian castro and michelle obama.nd bill the lesson that clint eastwood taught america if you are in a debate with an empty chair, you have got to win the debate. yeah, i guess that was the first debate of this election. [♪ theme music ♪] >> bill: hey, good morning, everybody, good to see you this morning, and welcome to the "full court press," on this wednesday september 5th, coming to you live on current tv all the way across this great land of ours again from charlotte, north carolina capitol of the democratic national convention, and day two of the democratic national convention. what a great night last night. julian castro, giving the keynote speech and michelle obama giving the most powerful speech of the night. we'll hear from elizabeth warren and vice president joe biden here tonight. what a difference between here and charlotte, and the lackluster event in tampa last week. we'll have randi weingarten. but first the current tv update from lisa ferguson. >> hi bill. good morning, everyone. the dny continues ton

hour, first lady michelle obama will address the delegates. and at midnight, piers morgan will wrap-up the first night of the 2012 democratic national convention. tune in, we won't miss a beat so you don't miss a beat. if you're doing the math and on the countdown, it means six hours until the official start of the convention. president obama is officially in the air right now, but he's not going to charlotte. not yet. he's got another stop beforehand in norfolk. the neighboring swing state of virginia. this is his last campaign trip before his biggest campaign trip of 2012 to accept the nomination for the second term. that's going to be thursday night in charlotte. but my other colleague, dan lothian, is awaiting the president at norfolk state university. the theme of the dnc convention, dan, is middle class. and yet all i keep seeing is the president showing up on university campuses and going for that young vote. >> that's right. but when you look around the crowd, you will see a lot of middle class voters, not only here, but in some of the

ronny had a more difficult time warming her husband up and then michelle did. you don't vote for a guy you don't like. >> you are a psychiatrist. here are two tigers in a cage. how to they come together and hug? >> i am a psychiatrist in remission. [laughter] clinton is a wonder of the world. we have this incredible performer. >> who was impeached. >> and here he is. but i thought the speech was an effective in promoting obama. it was all about promoting clinton, and he spoke 50 minutes and was sort of getting into it. he went on these riffs. by the end, half-expected to say, "you know, i have second thoughts." [laughter] "i withdraw the nomination of barack obama and i will place myself in nomination, and to those of you constitutional sticklers, how about my wife?" i would've loved the roll call on that. it would have been close. >> colby? >> after that speech, bill clinton went to another gathering and held forth for another 20 minutes. >> when he and gore were on the bus, you could never get them back on the bus because he wanted to talk to everybody in ame

michelle obama had everyone on the convention floor on their feet. >> i love michelle. i love her. >> some had tears in their eyes as mrs. obama spoke passionately about her husband. >> i have seen firsthand that being president doesn't change who you are. no, it reveals who you are. >> she says this president is a man whose upbringing and family values mean he'll look out for all americans. >> when it comes to rebuilding our economy, barack is thinking about folks like my dad and like his grandmother. that's why he cut taxes for working families and small businesses and fought to get the auto industry back on its feet. >> while the first lady stayed mostly away from politics, keynote speaker julian castro dove right in. he got the crowd fired up when he answered the question, are we better off today than we were four years ago? >> four years ago america stood on the brink of a depression. despite incredible odds and united republican opposition, our president took action and now we've seen 4.5 million new jobs. >> castro also made a pitch to hispanic voters. >> because

michelle obama is a much more known entity. she's in a lot of ways i think widely accepted to be one of the president's most powerful surrogates. what do you think she needs to do in terms of driving home the message that her husband is doing the most effective job possible, is prioritizing the middle class and the american economy? >> in an odd way, i think she is very different from ann romney. ann romney is not a professional politician. michelle obama is not a professional politician, either, but she has become something of one in the last four years. she has spoken off of a teleprompter, for instance. ann romney had never done that before. they will be judged differently. i think she needs to sell her husband both in terms of the middle class, in terms of policies but i think she also needs to paint this portrait of him as a husband, as a father, as sort of an every day guy because realistically, that is what ann romney was doing about her own husband. i think that michelle obama as we said is widely accepted as a terrific

first lady michele obama back on stage tonight. sat down with diane sawyer to talk about how their daughters thought of her big speech the other night. up next. abc news "nightline" brought to you by -- [ diana ] power was very important to me. we test-drove the camry, took it on the freeway, and it was just like -- this was the car for me. [ ryan ] it has stuff that guys like, like the rims and the sleekness to the body. and, then, had the bluetooth and the navigation that diana really wanted. [ diana ] and it was a sport edition, so it felt really grounded to the ground. [ man ] grounded to the ground? yes, yes! grounded to the ground. [ male announcer ] see their story and more at the camry effect. camry. from toyota. nothing complicated about a pair of 10 inch hose clamp pliers. you know what's complicated? shipping. shipping's complicated. not really. with priority mail flat rate boxes from the postal service shipping's easy. if it fits, it ships anywhere in the country for a low flat rate. that's not complicated. no. come on.

with michelle obama, it is his partner.lle obama says this? they're careful about that. she takes the edge off. you travel the country, meet people that just dislike the president, think he is too liberal, sometimes it is the race question. they will say but i like her and love how the family, they made me proud of the family in the white house. >> do we know what her role is tonight? there was talk about ann romney trying to personalize her husband to voters. >> i think in a way michelle obama is going to do some of the same stuff, lift the veil if you will. one area where she can be very helpful to her husband is in talking about how he makes the tough decisions, how he's calm under pressure, how he's intellectual about it, mature about it. and let people into this motion of barack obama as a real leader. you look at president obama compared to mitt romney, mitt romney is ahead in the latest polls on leadership. so i think she can tell the american people a little about how he makes those important decisions. >> but she i

let's talk about michelle obama's speech.> it was both personal but it related to all of the issues that affect us in a personal way. i thought it was a knock-out. >> she has high favorables. and certainly the president would like to have some of that rub off on him. how do you compare it to ann romney's speech? >> what was the most memorable thing about romney's speech? that his parents left, his father left a rose for his mother. that's not about mitt romney. and the story that michelle could tell about her family and barack's family is so much more moving and meaningful to the average family than mitt romney's. in terms of what it means to struggle and move up and how you need a little help. i thought it was a beautiful way to put it, but when you make it to the top, you don't slam the door on those behind you. i thought she knocked it out of the park. i was moved and i've seen a lot of these speeches. >> when you talk to voters who are concerned about the economy, to conversations about that, her personal relation transla

said hillary clinton, 72 said michelle obama. >> a lot of her fans out there. she had an excellent speech, there's no doubt about that. >> for wolf blitzer and i. piers morgan continues our coverage from the n pires. >> good evening and welcome to charlotte's hottest hot spot. the cnn grill. the political meeting sometimes over a beer or two. i'm here with two trusty drinkers. and my political all star panel. where else but the speeches in great stuff tonight including rising star, san antonio mayor. the democrats not so secret weapon. >> he knows what it means when a family struggles. he knows what it means to want something more for your kids and grandkids. barack knows the american dream because he's lived it and he wants everyone in this country, everyone to have the same opportunity no matter who we are or where we're from or what we look like or who we love. >> you have attracted quite a crowd. >> it is the sizzling energy bouncing off the place. the castro brothers were very die n dynamic. michelle obama knocked it out of the park as you americans would

allison, you've written this book about michelle obama, what would michelle do. last night she the did perhaps what many expected but took it to a whole other level. >> what would michelle do? she would look fabulous doing whatever she does. that's what she did in her speech. she reminded people who her husband really is and that he hadn't changed from that community activist that started in chicago who has a genuine concern for people's well-being. what she showed is she still had the confidence in him to make sure the country gets where he needs to go. he needs four more years. she reminded the country that's what the country needs to give him. >> many people said the first lady was referring to governor romney. let me play it. >> he's the same man hop started his career by turning down high-paying jobs and instead working in struggling neighborhoods where a see plant had shut down, fighting to rebuild those communities and get folks back to work. because for bra rack, success isn't about how much money you make. it's about the difference you make in people's l

second, i think the ann romney speech was less effective than the michelle obama speech. she had a riff about how much she loves women. i thought that was unnecessary and it sounded force. the part in which she spoke about her husband was effective. but warning him of is harder than warming up obama. >> but cynical? >> oh, yes. of course it was cynical. >> abortion, contraception, the women's vote. >> the democratic party establishes of relentlessly through the johnny one note mantra that they are the pro- abortion rights a party. that has been the essential message of this convention up to now. people are worried a lot more about the economy and growth and their kids' future. this is a message to try to engage, i guess, emotionally, passionately, and actively purchase women in voting for barack obama. they must be concerned about not participating. >> johnny one-note. do you agree with that? >> i don't know if it is one-no, but they had accurately portray themselves as the party that cares about women and not waging war on women. they vote in greater proportions to the p

michelle does that very well. >> ann, let me bring you in as well. you think about, especially during the campaign season, four years ago, how there was an attempt by the president's rivals, candidate obama at the time, to demonize michelle obama. she even said she felt there was an attempt to make her this angry black woman. that does not exist any more. that character has been beat back. but here you have a person, an individual woman, who there's a lot resting on her shoulders today to talk about the values that women can find relatable, including the economy. not just certainly about women's health issues and healthcare, it is about the economy and how it impacted women. >> yes. she worked very hard over the last four years since the middle of the last campaign it figure out what they're public profile should be. how she can conduct herself in way the whole country can relate to and not to get into things that could be misinterpreted. her role tonight is easier. she has already defined it. and she's got to be talking about her husband as a person

michelle obama, 2016?eches, and that one by the first lady is going to be hard. barack obama is a good speech giver but that one will be hard to top. if there is an open ballot, now would be a good time to sign up. >> twitter exploded with 20,000 tweets per minute, nearly double that of mitt romney and also the president's speech at state of the union. who knows? maybe michelle obama is the next hillary? she was asked if she would ever run for office and they got an emphatic no. but her job last night wasn't to sell herself but her husband. still, you can't escape the question this morning, should michelle obama run for public office? your responses later this hour. >>> presidential campaigns used to worry how many people showed up at rallies. now it's how many twitter followers they have. i'll tell you who comes out on top, next. chase scene netflix coming soon extra butter tickets swoon penguin journey junior mints movie phone evil prince bollywood 3d shark attack ned the head 5% cashback signup for 5% c
