President Obama breaks hearts, confirms Michelle has to leave too
Watch Next

President Barack Obama's presidency is reaching its end, but Jimmy Kimmel asks the question many have wistfully wondered at some point: "I know you have to leave, but can we keep her for another four years?"

However, by the sounds of it Michelle Obama and the couple's two daughters are more than ready for a break from living in the public eye. "All the women in my life are looking forward to being able to live a more normal life," POTUS admits.

As it turns out, the First Lady is not a big fan of politics, dashing the wishful speculation by many that she might one day be the next Obama to sit in the Oval office.

"I try to organize my life not to have a lot of mess around it, and politics is just a big mess," the President reports FLOTUS to have told him.

Wise words, wise words indeed. Are you suuuuuuure you can't stay, FLOTUS?
