Michelle Obama: Girl Gives Unemployed Dad’s Resume To First Lady [VIDEO]


The First Lady, Michelle Obama, received something rather unique from a girl during the White House’s “Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day,” and it was a wonderful favor to her father.

According to the Washington Post, Michelle Obama called upon a girl, who is identified as 10-year-old Charlotte Bell, during a question-and-answer session. Bell stood up, walked to Michelle Obama, and simply said:

“My dad’s been out of a job for three years and I wanted to give you his resume.”

Michelle Obama seemed genuinely surprised before inviting Bell on the stage to give her a hug and accept the resume. Obama and Bell briefly spoke before Obama held the resume up and announced:

“Well it’s a little private, but she’s doing something for her dad. Alright?”

Michelle Obama then shook the resume, still raised up in her hand, and simply said, “Got it.”

The White House declined to comment on the situation, as stated in Today, but it is very touching to see a young girl do all she can to help her father whenever the opportunity arises (being Michelle Obama in this situation). It is an unfortunate situation that Bell’s father has been unemployed for the last three years. However, the situation with unemployment in the United States seems to be a matter that isn’t getting any better. According to numerous reports here on The Inquisitr, there have been arguments on the topic of unemployment benefits, including unemployment extension, which was supposedly opposed by the GOP. Not to mention, Obamacare is said to have made unemployment worse. Back in mid-2013, there have been a massive number of layoffs from numerous companies. The reason, either officially or unofficially, was Obamacare.

It doesn’t help that the US population in general have given up on the US economy. Charlotte Bell giving her resume to someone who can “make a difference” still shows there is hope. However, Michelle Obama’s main goal, as First Lady, is children’s health, especially when it comes to school lunches, which is a far cry from the unemployment situation. Still, people who seen this video do hope Michelle Obama can help this girl’s father. Three years unemployed is way too long to be unemployed. Unfortunately, it is probably common these days.
