Michelle Obama: ‘Female President of the U.S.’ Might Just Happen

‘I’m proud to say that this year, for the first time in history, we just might elect a President — a female President of the United States’

"Imagine if at the age of 10, or 11, or 12, someone came to you and said, 'sorry, you are a girl. You finished with your education. Forget about all your dreams. Instead, you will marry a man twice your age and start having babies.' I mean,to most of us that would be unbearable. So the question is how do we begin to change these inequalities in our cultures, to not just change laws and policies, but to change hearts and minds. I am proud to say that this year for the first time in history we might just elect a president, a female president of the United States."
