'Sitting behind desk at Oval Office not for me': Michelle Obama says there is 'zero chance' she will run for US president

Washington: Former US First Lady Michelle Obama on Friday put an end to calls for her to run for president. She stated that there are other ways to help the country. “There’s zero chance”, Michelle said when asked whether she will run for president.

But sitting behind the desk in the Oval Office will never be one of them. It’s just not for me”, she added. Michelle has repeatedly been called to consider running for the next presidential election. Recently, US-based filmmaker Michael Moore said that only Michelle can unseat current President Donald Trump, reported The Hill. “Everybody watching this right now knows she is a beloved American and she would go in there and she would beat him”, Moore said on Thursday when asked who he thought could unseat Donald Trump.“She would beat him in the debates, he would not be able to bully her, he would not be able to nickname her”, he added. “She takes the stage and she is so powerful and so good you just look at that and think of course she could win”, Moore said.
