(93,867 posts)Absolutely not, the first lady declared, when a girl at the White House for its Take Your Daughters And Sons To Work Day, asked if she will ever run for president.
One of the things you learn about yourself as you get older are what are your strengths and what are your interests, she said. And for me, its other stuff, that is not being the President. So I probably wont run.
When my husband is running for President, were right in there; were serving, too, she said. And I think that once his terms are over, well go on to do other important things because there are so many ways that you can help this country and the world, even if youre not president of the United States, she said.
