The Gores never seemed genuine to me.

Does Michelle even have any old boyfriends in her past? Never heard anyone from Princeton or Harvard LS come forward that they dated her.

And?

Not everyone is in to having multiple boyfriends or girlfriends.

As for people not saying they dated them, some people have class and don't rush to the first gossip site they can to kiss & tell about their former celebrity love.

Lastly, stop using the word in bold to describe people it's highly offensive and best reserved for dogs, snakes, and birds.

That they do. I can't comment on the ins and outs of their relationship, but I greatly appreciate that during the Obama years we didn't have to deal with infidelity scandals.

Who knows but it seems like ambition clouded things for one or both of them. Barack probably always had ambitions to be in the national spotlight and she sure as heck wasn't going to spend her life married to a lowly state senator. They did what they had to do to get him there - but you wonder if between that and raising the kids, they lost some of the genuine affection for each other.

Do you think he got any action on the side while in the White House?

How could that have happened without becoming a sordid scandal that would have come out in this day and age? He also doesn't seem particularly sexual to me.

I think it is very genuine. You can't fake the way they look at each other. Obama, who is a great man by pretty much any metric, STILL believes he batted out of his league with Michelle. She has his back but isn't afraid to tell him what he needs to hear either. He fully credits her with making sure he stayed focused on being a good dad in his presidency. I think many people have happy marriages with people they are compatible with but there's those few who really seem to be matched with THEIR person and the Obamas are one of those to me.

Maybe not an issue bc of age or surgical procedures that may have been done but in talking about this, I think - what would you do if you were president and First Lady relying on condoms or other bc? You can't exactly go down to cvs to get it. I'm pretty sure while theres a White House dr, there's no gyno. Do you really want to ask an aide to buy condoms or fill a BC script for you? Are you Amazon priming condoms at that point?

Barack seems like an aloof loner to me. Michelle is a smart and crafty striver in the same sense that Hillary is. Both hitched their wagons to men that appeared destined to rise to the top. Without their husbands Hillary and Michelle would be two corporate lawyers we would have never heard of.

DH and I have similar backgrounds wrt relationships and have a kind loving longstanding marriage. Some people just wait it out until they meet their life partner and go from there. Everyone is different.

I don't think he's an aloof loner -- I think he's very friendly and personable -- just look at how people flock to him. But I do agree that both Michelle and Hillary were strivers determined to hitch their wagon to a rising star and it worked out for both of them.

Even though there's no white house gynecologist, i'm pretty sure these first ladies aren't going 8 yrs without seeing anyone. They're either seeing someone at one of the nearby military facilities or their personal doctor when they go back to Chicago, Texas etc. In any event, I'm sure these doctors are aware that they can't just hand a first lady a script for something and expect her to go to CVS to fill it; so I'm willing to bet a drug is prescribed and while she waits in the office, it is filled at a hospital pharmacy under another name and then a dr. just hands it to her so she can drop it in her purse and go.

Absolutely, on the DL. I hear he is a playa.

If true, sad since they were married for a long time. They must have felt trapped by Al's political ambitions.

The love between Barack & Michelle is something I could only hope to have. Two accomplished professionals who are genuine.
