First lady Michelle Obama called on young “knuckleheads” to sign up for healthcare — saying they are not invincible.
Appearing on “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon,” Obama said young people have the perception they are invincible, but “life happens.”
“And a lot of young people think they are invincible but the truth is young people are knuckleheads,” she said. “They are the ones who are cooking for the first time and slicing their finger open. They are dancing on the bar stool.”
She was quick to point out the federal healthcare exchange website is functioning better than it was in the early days of the rollout last year.
“It’s working!” she said, adding that young people could get healthcare for “less than the cost of gym shoes.”
Obama made her appearance on the show to promote her “Let’s Move” campaign, appearing in a sketch along side Fallon and Will Farrell, who both portrayed female characters.

This is so typical Obama- there is no room for disagreement. If you don’t agree with them, you’re an idiot. She can easily afford a $12,000 gown so everyone should be able to afford Obamacare, right?
