Michelle Obama has finally answered the question people have been asking her for years — if she will ever run for President…
The former First Lady’s response might come as a surprise some people…
One person said: “The country doesn’t deserve her.”
You can only wonder what Barack thinks about her reply!
Read on for the full story.
Now, Barack Obama became the “President of the people” in 2008…
And gained a strong and loyal fan base as a result of his progressive views on social issues such as same-sex marriage and gun control.
He successfully served 2 terms as president…
And, in his 8 years in the White House, Obama cut taxes for working families, small businesses, and first-time homebuyers.
He also stuck to his promise…
By tackling financial reform, alternative energy, reinventing education, and health care.
Since leaving the White House, Obama has found success elsewhere.
Most notably in the world of publishing, with his 2020 memoir A Promised Land becoming an instant hit.
But we can’t forget that Obama wasn’t alone in his presidential journey.
Continuously supporting him was his wife, Michelle Obama.
The Obamas have a lengthy love story.
The couple first met when a then twenty-five-year-old Michelle Robinson was assigned as a mentor for a twenty-eight-year-old Barack Obama at their law firm.
The influential couple tied the knot in 1992.
“Barack didn’t pledge riches, only a life that would be interesting. On that promise he delivered,” Mrs. Obama later recalled.
She supported her husband as he navigated his way through politics…
And, along with their 2 young daughters, was suddenly catapulted into the spotlight when he ran for president.
Of course, it didn’t take the world long to fall completely in love with Mrs. Obama…
People simply loved the first lady as much as they loved the president!
She has been influential in so many ways…
The fifty-eight-year-old is definitely one of the most admired women in America.
And no one can deny her status as a fashion icon either!
Michelle is a huge supporter of the American fashion scene, and can be seen constantly sporting some incredible looks.
And, even after Barack’s presidency came to an end…
The couple have remained very much in the hearts of the nation.
Many people feel that they have grown to know the Obama family quite well over years.
But that’s no surprise for the family of a former President!
The whole family has been in the limelight for a while now.
And this naturally includes the 2 daughters — Malia and Sasha.
The eldest of the girls, Malia, is now twenty-four years old!
She graduated from Harvard University last year.
Sasha is now twenty-one years old.
The Obama’s youngest chose to forego Ivy League and is currently attending the University of Michigan.
But what has got everyone talking as of late is one of Michelle’s latest interviews…
You’ll never guess what she had to say!
The former First Lady was being interviewed on the BBC…
When presenter Naga Munchetty asked a rather intriguing question.
She said: “Which question do you detest being asked?”
Michelle’s answer came to her instantly!
She responded: “Are you going to run for President?”
“I detest it.
“No, I’m not going to run,” Michelle concluded quickly.
