Here’s an excerpt from that story, written by Sun Sentinel staff writer Mike Clary:
Here’s a link to the student paper, The Observer, where on page 21 she has a Sept. 2008 piece about the presidential campaign, entitled “Can Obama lie with dogs and NOT rise with fleas?”
An excerpt:
” … All of this implies the Democrats are using Obama as a flashy puppet to distract

cat reputation. His mother was white, his father black. It is safe to assume there are no
prejudices there, and this should make it easy for him to relate to all people…. Problem: Obama is a new man every day. He speaks of change. And that he does daily, right in front of America’s eyes.”
And also a story on page 23 of that edition, headlined “Politics made plain, a gift from John McCain.”
