Yet another reason to stay far far away!

Imagine he wins the election. Then a year from now something happens to him. Holy crap, President Michelle Obama? That alone should scare the hell out of everyone at the mere thought. Barack is then the first lady, and of course sets policy and runs much in the background.

I know, conspiracy, and I admit as much. :) But just a few short stops away if he were to choose her.

Joe Biden: I’d Pick Michelle Obama as Running Mate ‘in a Heartbeat’

Former Vice President Joe Biden, the presumptive Democrat presidential nominee, said he would undoubtedly select former first lady Michelle Obama to be his running mate, though he admitted she likely does not want to jump back into politics anytime soon.

“I’d take her in a heartbeat,” Biden said in a Monday interview with CBS Pittsburgh when asked if he would add Obama to the ticket. “She’s brilliant. She knows the way around. She is a really fine woman. The Obamas are great friends.”

However, he said he doubts she wants the job.

“I don’t think she has any desire to live near the White House again,” Biden said.

In the same interview, Biden reiterated his pledge to select a woman as his running mate and said the vetting process is still ongoing.

“I’ll commit to that [it will] be a woman because it is very important that my administration look like the public, look like the nation,” he said. “And there will be, committed that there will be a woman of color on the Supreme Court, that doesn’t mean there won’t be a vice president, as well.”

Biden previously proposed the former first lady as his running mate, telling supporters at an Iowa campaign stop in January that he would “sure would like Michelle to be the vice president.” During the same event, he also floated his former boss, President Barack Obama, as a possible Supreme Court Justice pick.

“Yeah, I would, but I don’t think he’d do it,” the Democrat said when asked if he would choose Obama to sit on the High Court. “He’d be a great Supreme Court justice.”
