Speaking to Newsweek, on Tuesday, Crystal Carson, Michelle Obama's director of communications, reiterated a statement the former first lady's office made in March that said: "As former First Lady Michelle Obama has expressed several times over the years, she will not be running for president." ...

"She has stated on numerous occasions that she does not want to be considered for a wide range of personal reasons. Procedurally, Biden would either need to resign (but this would make Kamala Harris the President for the rest of the administration's tenure and likely make her the candidate, not Michelle Obama), or he would need to declare that he is ending his campaign and release his delegates acquired through the primary process, where it would be the job of the delegates to throw their support to a new candidate, one of whom could be Michelle Obama. In the latter scenario, Michelle Obama would have to compete against other candidates."
