Celebrity News – Michelle Obama And Hillary Clinton’s Alleged Feud
At that time, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama each wanted to make a presidential run. They were on equal footing as Democratic senators, but they had to woo voters to their sides and things got testy.
According to The New York Times, Hillary said Barack was “frankly naive” and tore him up for being newer to the world stage than she was. Hillary even accused Barack of plagiarism, but he chose to stick to more political critiques, questioning Hillary’s stance on foreign policy.
Apparently the bad blood persisted until Barack won the Democratic ticket, and the rest is history. Some figured that the feud was over at that point, especially since Bill endorsed Barack for a second term. Not so, according to another author.
