Moussavi's Wife Says She Admires Michelle Obama

I'm so excited about Iranian elections. It's good to see so many young people hopeful for a new direction. Kind of reminds me of our 2008 elections.
This could be a turning point in U.S. Iranian relations if Ahmadinejad's rival Mir-Hossein Moussavi wins. Moussavi's wife, Zahra Rahnavard, who's been active in the campaign--unusual for Iran--says she admires Michelle Obama. 
Watch that here.
Moussavi doesn't seem as rigid and as extreme as Ahmandinejad.
Ah, the world is changing. Fingers crossed.
