Yahoo News ^ | 3/16

First lady Michelle Obama said Wednesday she had no desire to follow Hillary Clinton and run for president herself, saying she could have more impact outside of Washington's polarized politics.

Obama made the remarks as she addressed the South by Southwest festival in Austin, Texas, where she introduced a song for charity to support a UN-backed campaign to improve education access for the 62 million unschooled girls around the world.

"I will not run for president. Nope, nope, not going to do it," she said in response to a question.

I thought she hated D.C. Otherwise she could probably win in eight years.

From the usual look on her face, you would think she was the inspector in a Limburger cheese factory instead of the First Lady.

I think she’s too busy getting ready to divorce Barky.

I remember when so many FReepers said Bill and Hill would split up right after their WH stint ended...

Someone actually asked her that?

With her stellar qualifications? Why not ask the daughters?

Well, arguably, she is about as qualified as her husband.

How selfish of her to deny us the privilege of her wisdom and grace.

She’s only 52 yrs old.
I suspect she will get a tv gig for a few years after leaving the WH, then do a Hillary and slide into the Senate, then the POTUS run.

Axlegrease and Plouffy got Baraq re-elected with a horrible record in 2012. Putting Mooch in would be as easy as Baraq was in 2008.

Actually on this one she’s pretty smart. Think of the mess one walks into. She knows a cluster f@$/$ when she sees one.

I would love to hear what Michelle had to say about her time as First Lady, off the record, after a drink or two. One day, maybe. After they leave. Have your bleeper button at the ready.

She has never been proud of her country until she began using taxpayer dollars to dress outrageously and fly her family, including her mom, on ostentatious vacations and shopping sprees.

She will soon have permanent largesse available to her as a former first lady, and needs to groom her two daughters on the finer points of milking taxpayers to live the life of filthy rich. Barack must be busy to not have his two daughter burdened with a child when they make ‘mistakes’ so he needs the abortionist to perform his duty to do so.

Why should she? She is set for life right now, plus she is low energy.

That this question is even asked of her shows how retarded the voting populace and the news media is.

Heard a speech she did at SXSW - did not fly on the same plane with the Kenyan, as usual. She was whining about how down trodden her life was being told, “no” at every turn with her education. Excuse me, but she had a educational opportunities people would die for. What a big fat liar.

She needs to seek her own destiny. Run for president in a few years or hope she gets drafted as a defensive back for the Dallas Cowboys next year. Odds lean to the NFL.

Of course not... there may be work associated with being President.
