“Asked if she thinks the country will see a female president in her lifetime, the wife of President Barack Obama said: ‘Yes, I think the country is ready for it. It’s just a question of who’s the best person out there.’ She added that she herself will not run for president. Obama also said she thinks her husband’s time in office has helped ease racial prejudice in the United States. ‘Children born in the last eight years will only know an African-American man being president of the United States. That changes the bar for all of our children, regardless of their race, their sexual orientation, their gender,’ Obama said.”
