Barack said Michelle used to burn the U.S. flag?

A friend of mine told me that Barack Obama was on Meet the Press with General Bill Glinn and that Barack suggested changing the flag, the national anthem and that Michelle used to burn flags back in the day. Is this true? I can't find anything like that anywhere. This friend is no crazy person, so I don't know what to think.

    On Meet the Press? Hmmm....., if he said these things, I missed it. Transcripts are available.

    I highly doubt that he would say something like that. For one, it would put his campaign at risk because of the Anti-USA message that it pins on his family, and it would also alienate a lot of people. Even if something like that were true, there are very few people that would admit to it.

    It's probably just a rumor by people that do not have a lot of affection for his campaign.

    With his habit of not saluting the American flag & not wearing a flag pin, he just shows a little of how he really feels..

    I have not heard this, but given their radical counterculture past, I do not doubt it.
