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.

I don’t like the Obamas, but I do not think this issue is at all important. Many couples go through times of difficulty, but push through it and manage to save the marriage which becomes stronger.
Does this mean that all is not wel at”River City”?
Barring that (and I'm not sure what he'd be imprisoned for) ...
I want to see him fail miserably trying to do the ex-President speakers' tour thing ...
I would bet almost anything at this point that within 5 years of losing office in 2013 - michelle and barry are going to be broke and divorced.
That would be far better revenge than Barry performing seppuku.
That’s a fact he may be facing up to right now. Personalities like his can explode because of rejection. With Eric Holder at his side anything could happen.
Life is one missed opportunity after another.
I pity the Secret Service guys assigned to Bam-Bam after he loses.
That strikes me as the assignment you get if you seriously annoy your boss.

No such luck.
Well we want to read it anyway. If this was a Republican it would be all over the news.
No doubt he was so depressed because he was about to lose his beard and chances for the potus.
He didn’t want her running around telling the world all she knew about his made-up life story.
I am having a tough time in coming up with a comment that won’t get deleted.
I guess I will simply say...........’there is always another day’.
“He didn’t want her running around telling the world all she knew about his made-up life story.”
We can guess at the Obamas’ various fictions, but Michelle perplexes me. She does not seem at all like a woman who would put up with a sham marriage (if that is true). Then again, he doesn’t seem like the type who would put up with a woman—wife, mother, grandmother—derailing his “destiny”.
Free Vaycays, livin’ large on the taxpayers’ dime, no-show jobs, fawning press coverage...
no way she’ll give that up.
More of the “I’m so in love with Michelle, and did I tell you I’m not Gay?”
