Imagine. Michelle in the line of succession. LOL.

Barack doesn't want it.
..And to be subjected to more disrespect and insults from that shit stain in the white house?
I wish them a peaceful retirement from public service.

Not sure if someone who's served two terms as president would be allowed in the chain of succession

We have had naturalized people serve in Presidential Cabinets,they are all in the line of succession, but unable to take the office of President.
Although when we win in 2024 and she and Barack are invited to (daresay Harris? Or Gillum? Or Beto) inaugural ball, well that would be rewarding!
