At a town hall event in Louisiana yesterday, President Obama was asked by an attendee if first lady Michelle Obama would ever consider running for president. His answer was a strong no.
ABC News reported:
Obama Says Michelle Obama Will Not Run for PresidentIt used to be that death and taxes were the only certain things in life, but for President Barack Obama there is a third: Michelle Obama will not run for president.
With Obama now in his final year in office, the focus naturally has shifted to who will succeed him. At a town hall event Thursday with Louisiana residents, Obama was asked if there's any chance he could talk the first lady into running.
His answer? An emphatic "no."
"There are three things that are certain in life: Death, taxes and Michelle is not running for president," he said. "That I can tell you."
A dozen Republicans and three Democrats are in the running to succeed Obama next January, but speculation seems to be returning to whether Mrs. Obama would ever run, despite her previous declarations that she would have to be crazy to do so.
Obama praised his wife of 23 years for her work to reduce childhood obesity, as well as her efforts with Jill Biden, the vice president's wife, to help military families. He said he was certain she would stay active after leaving the White House, and launched into a riff on her youthful appearance compared to his head of grey hair after seven years in office.
Here's a video of the exchange:

So, Freepers ... do you think the Royal Idiot is lying about this, too?
She would do it just for the free trips.
I mean, Obama did it for the free golf.
Better than the Lotto.
Way too many reasons why he won’t....
She’s too Grumpy
Hillary's Poll Numbers Plumet
Moochie Throws Her Hat Into The Ring
While ObaMao has nothing against looting the treasury for personal gain, pushing his ideology comes first. With Hillary, it is quite the opposite.
If Her Heinous is out, they’ll run the Wookie..
What if he thinks this is true, but he upsets Michelle by saying this? Kind of odd timing considering the problems in the Hillary campaign. Is it a veiled dig at her?
If Hillary goes down, Michele is in.
If Hillary goes down, Michele is in.
Never say NEVER!!
The word that come to mind is “nasty.” As in- “Who would vote for that nasty b!tch?”
-Idiot-
He needs a GPS as much as a Teleprompter.
No, Obama doesn't plan on leaving.
I'llbet there's not one kid who ate those crap lunches that have lost an ounce.
I’ve been saying the same thing for a year now. If that happens, we’re looking at another 8 Obama years.
Soetoro just wants to see where the sighs of relief come from - then you can more easily be rounded up for the re-education camp. At least she is actually eligible....aagggghhh
YOu got that right - as soon as the kids got home from school and before they hit the tv or video games, they were stuffing their little mouths with forbidden foods....
Then I can only pray America is nuked into oblivion.
