You are criticizing her accent that is a reference to her country of
origin and you are making fun of her name.
Since this is the first wife of an elected president born in a foreign
country, I might expect bigots to slam her tho. Rock on.



Actually, she is the second foreign born first lady. John Quincy
Adams's wife was born in England.


You to missed the "elected" part.
JQA was the first and so far only president "Selected" by the house.
Jackson had a plurality of the EC votes and of the popular vote.
Adams really just carried New York and New England but most of the mid
west went for him in the house vote picking up most of Henry Clay's
states. That was the corrupt bargain because Clay was brokering the
SoS job that Adams ended up giving him.
