Talked to the National Office. They confirm a Michelle Obama as a rechartering advisor at Gamma Sigma and are pretty sure that is the person who we think it is. They aren't really pushing her as best as I can tell because right now she is *theoretically* transitorially notable. Were everything to fall apart for Sen. Obama's campaign between now and the Democratic convention, her notability as a US Senator's wife would probably not qualify her. (Though with university presidents from the 1940s on the list...) As wife of the Democratic Nominee for President, I think probably, as First Lady, definitely.

To me, her situation is somewhere between that of President Clinton and Senator Clinton. Like President Clinton, she joined before she was at all famous. Like Senator Clinton she hasn't been an active brother.
