"Elitist Obama" put down is BOGUS

I am so tired of this particular criticism of Obama. It is just "pandering" to the working class from Hillary & others to get votes. He did NOT grow up "drinking latte, etc." I admire an eloquent, educated, & accomplished person who came from a decidedly lower to middle-class background for the most part. This is something that speaks very well of him; NOT a reason to put him down!
I take this personally: I was a lower income high school graduate who raised my son as a single parent through a good portion of his upbringing. He also graduated from Harvard Law School (last year,) did lots of community service, & now works for one of the top law firms in the world. He can also be judged by those who do not take the time to know him (or check out the facts) as an "elitist." Please look beyond the sound bites!
