Obama Rules Out Biden Cabinet Position If Offered

The Guardian reports:

Barack Obama would not take a position in Joe Biden’s cabinet if the president-elect offered it – because if he did, he fears, Michelle Obama would leave him.

The 44th president made the remark in an interview with CBS Sunday Morning, two days ahead of publication of his memoir, A Promised Land. He was due to speak to CBS again, for 60 Minutes, on Sunday night.

Asked how he will help Biden, Obama said: “He doesn’t need my advice, and I will help him in any ways that I can. Now, I’m not planning to suddenly work on the White House staff or something.”

“No cabinet position for you, Mr. President?” asked King.

“There are probably some things I would not be doing, ’cause Michelle would leave me,” Mr. Obama laughed. “She’d be like, ‘What? You’re doin’ what?'” https://t.co/cXZJuG9xnA
