Michelle Obama "Should Have Been President" Instead Of Barack, According To Their Professor

Barack was good, but Michelle would have been better.

That’s according to their former law school professor, who claims that Mrs. Obama was always the better student and that she, “should have been President.”

Charles Ogletree Jr., who specializes in constitutional law, taught both the former President and First Lady when the two came through Harvard Law together in the late ‘80s.

His opinion on the couple is both insightful and hilarious. “When I first saw [Barack], he was speaking too much,” he joked. “He wanted everything. He said, ‘I can answer that question, professor.’ I said, ‘Barack, I want to call on Mary.’”

But then Ogletree, unprompted, gets his real feelings about the situation off his chest: “But you know, his wife should have been President.”

This obviously shocked the interviewer, so Ogletree followed up by saying, “Ohhhh, absolutely. He was great too, but she was better.”

And then, reading all of America’s hopeful minds, he quickly added, “She could easily be President – but I don’t think she will.”

This echoes what Michelle herself has said about the situation. Especially after Trump took office and turned the country upside down, many hoped the former First Lady would run for her husband’s old job, giving us at least 4 more years of the most popular Presidential family in recent memory.

But it doesn’t look like Michelle’s interested. She’s on the record saying she’s spent enough time in the White House, and that she now wants to focus on family. And, if their social media posts are any indication, she and Barry are enjoying their well-earned time off:

But hey, we've got 3 years to change her mind, right?
