- Actor Robert De Niro opened a fundraiser starring Michelle Obama by listing her Republican rivals and jokingly suggesting that America isn’t “ready for a white first lady.” Newt Gingrich was not amused, and the Obama campaign says the quip was inappropriate.
Gingrich on Tuesday called De Niro’s comment “inexcusable” and demanded an apology from President Barack Obama.
