Michael Moore, damn his dark soul, claims only Michelle can beat Trump.. He’s wrong.
Michelle said many, many times she will not run.

I WON’T RUN FOR PRESIDENT BECAUSE I DON’T LEAD A NORMAL LIFE ANYMORE’

Is her word worth anything?
Michelle said she was “not interested in politics” and no longer lived a normal life, which distanced her from the experiences of everyday Americans.” Reason’s enough, right?
Not for block-head Moore. He wants to ask her to run. He actually did ask her when his words were repeated nationwide by many left-wing media outlets, which is just about all of them. She needs to say: “If drafted, I will not run; if nominated, I will not accept; if elected, I will not serve.”
“What Barack and I talk about that we do miss…is the loss of anonymity,” Obama said. “And that’s something that most people don’t understand, how valuable anonymity is. Being able to blend into your environment, and not be the center of it, but just to observe it…and because I love people so much, I love casual conversations with people.

“While I loved my time in the car alone with Chipotle, I love what you learn standing in a grocery store line and overhearing someone’s conversation. You know, watching their interactions with their loved one. Not being the watchee, but watching, and taking that in and understanding life and the observations that come.

“Most of your interaction with your partner is about what you saw, what you experienced over the course of the day. For Barack and I, that’s still very limited because we’re not able to be exposed in an anonymous way in the world.”

Obama said she and her husband are now always watched and, though she values it, have a constant security presence. That she can no longer “learn about the world” by blending into it anonymously “is another reason why I wouldn’t run.”

“I don’t live a normal life. I used to. Normal is very baked into me because of how I was raised, but I also know the life I’ve lived for the last 10 years is no longer normal,” Obama said.

“And so I don’t know as much as I would want to, to be in a position of leadership, to kind of know what are you feeling? Because you can’t experience life behind a tinted window in a car.

“So we sacrificed that, and that’s not a complaint, but if I’m going to be a leader I’ve got to be in there. I’ve got to be able to be in there overhearing people’s truths, and really being able to see their pain without it being filtered through the veil of me.

“Eight years is enough. It is enough. It’s time for new ideas and people who’ve been in the Chipotle line, and people who are struggling in ways that, because of the nature of what we’ve done, we don’t do that anymore. We need fresh, real, clear eyes in this stuff. That’s why we’re investing our time in training the next leaders.”

O’Brien also asked Obama, who now campaigns to raise the aspirations and achievement of children and for greater voter turnout in elections, if she would participate in the 2020 cycle.

“What I have said, because I’m not interested in politics, and I have said this before, is that sadly in our country when you put an R or D on you, you immediately alienate most of the country with whatever choice you make,” Michelle said.
“We’re in those times right now. And my goal is that I want to be able to reach as many people as possible. I don’t want people to stop listening or to take what I say differently if it’s the truth just because I’m a D. Because there are a lot of Rs out there that I love and respect, and if I know something, I want Republicans’ kids to know about college.

“I’m not one of these people who are like either you’re on my side or you’re not. I think you can do that better outside of politics. But I will do everything I can to emphasize the importance of voting.”
