 Michelle Obama: ‘I am terrified about what could possibly happen’ in 2024 election
by Judy Kurtz - 01/08/24 10:48 AM ET

Michelle Obama says fears about the 2024 White House race keep her up at night.

“I am terrified about what could possibly happen,” Obama said of this year’s presidential election in an interview on Jay Shetty’s “On Purpose” podcast, released Monday.

“Because our leaders matter. Who we select, who speaks for us, who holds that bully pulpit — it affects us in ways that sometimes I think people take for granted,” the former first lady said when asked to name some of her biggest fears keeping her awake.

“The fact that people think that government, does it really even do anything? And I’m like, ‘Oh my God, does government do everything for us.’ And we cannot take this democracy for granted. And sometimes I worry that we do,” Obama, 59, said.

“Those are the things that keep me up,” she said, while also listing wars “in too many regions,” the future of artificial intelligence, education, whether the public is “too stuck” to their phones, and voter engagement among her chief concerns.

During the wide-ranging conversation, Shetty asked the former first lady about the phrase she famously uttered at the 2016 Democratic National Convention: “When they go low, we go high,” and how it’s evolved.

...hmmm ...so terrified that she finds the need to run for the presidency....

What scares me is Michelle doing a tampon commercial.
Where would "they" put it?

That worries me.
Fools would vote for her as the first female to run, etc....

Elections by Guinness Book of World Records.  That's how we got Michael's "husband."

Well maybe the first Black female with a dick to run....but there have been many many women who have run for president and not even the Obama-ites could erase that much history

I can 100% guarantee you that Michelle Obama’s not gonna run for president

Gosh, I hope you are correct!  I can see fools by the millions lining up to vote for such an historical candidate!

I hope you are right. But frankly...I've been expecting it from the beginning. So I won't be surprised, just dismayed.

We took him to the one in Florida about four years ago. He liked it but with his autism, the rides were a little bit much for him

If Michelle Obama ran, there would be a lot of “historic first” voters. But I see nothing that indicates that she has any type of aspirations for political office.

I’ve seen plenty of interviews with her that suggest that her time at the White House was an unhappy time. She never made any claims of co-presidency like Hillary Clinton did.

I’m probably one of a few that sense  Joe Biden will be the candidate in 2024. But that he will step down from the White House after the election.

I'm betting that she runs. She's just getting people warmed up to the idea of a Michael Obama for president.

Where are you seeing that? Every interview she’s given she seems to be happy to be out of the White House

I can 100% guarantee you that she’s not gonna ever run for any political office.

I'm not seeing the information anywhere that she's running .... yet.  We'll just go with it's my intuition.

We shall see.

I guess I’m curious where all this “Michelle is running” came from

We might as well just say Melania Trump is going to run

As I stated -- let's just say it's my intuition. That's certainly not up for debate obviously.

As for Melania -- has she been in the news recently regarding the election??  Obama has, more than once.

I've bet that Obama will run or at least fill the VP slot for quite awhile.

Purely speculation on my part and my opinion.

I just want 2020 to end. (2021, 2022, 2023 were just 2020 redux).
