Michelle Obama prepared divorce papers to separate from Barack Obama in 2000 following his disastrous attempt to win a House seat in Chicago, according to a new book.
When he lost miserably the future First Lady was supposedly disgusted that her husband had ignored her warnings not to take on the four term incumbent Bobby Rush.
Their marriage - in its eighth year at the time - was on the rocks with Mr Obama so depressed some of his friends feared he was suicidal.
The claims mark the second time the Obamas have faced allegations they were on the verge of divorce after reports in 2010 suggested they were having difficulties.
The couple have admitted that in the past they did go through a rough patch but that they patched things up and grew closer together.
The Obamas have now been married for 21 years and have two children, Malia, 13, and Sasha, nine.
In The Amateur, Mr Kleins unauthorised account of Mr Obamas life and first term in office, he claims that Mr Obama was over ambitious in his attempt to take on House member Mr Rush for the black South Side seat in Chicago.
In a crushing blow, he lost by two votes to one prompting claims from Mr Rush that he was an educated fool.

What? Wow. Loser.
Hey Michelle....I see a big “L” coming your way.
I don’t care.
Let’s talk about Hussein’s abysmal record, the trilldebt, millions out of work.
You can only stand being a beard for so long.
So what saved the marriage - a Hall Pass?
Nah, they both got a little action ... but not with each other. /s
If he is a homosexual maybe that explains her anger and refuse to ride in the same plane at times...
She was outraged that the Disaster dared challenge the Black Panther leader.
Once again. Bobby Rush, only half right.
I thought it was because he suggested she get Breast Implants to accentuate her collection of fashionable Boob Belts.
Ever notice Barack has a slight lisp when he speaks?
maybe we'll get lucky and she'll fly with him on that trip
I think I gotta side with Barook 0dumb0 on this one. Can you imagine waking up in the morning to that leviathan mooochelle snoring next to you. It would be like waking up to Godzilla. I wonder if mooochelle sleeps with the same angry scowl on her face, as she perpetually has on her face during the day.
To bad their fears were not fulfilled.
Yeah, you better get some ice on that lip.
So is it just a coincidence that she was considering divorce in 2000 when the alleged Wild Limo Ride in Gurnee happened allegedly in 1999?
Gibbs' Rule #39.
I don’t understand why people don’t make more of the fact that Obama’s mother-in-law lives with Michelle at the White House. If Bush’s mother-in-law lived with him at the White house you bet it would have been the butt of 1000s of jokes on Leno/Letternam/SNL/etc. But we get silence from comedians for some reason.
