She hasn't even left the White House yet and people are already calling for her return
Michelle has been an inspiration to us all - will she be back?
Here are 12 reasons she would make a great President.
Will Michelle Obama run for President in 2020? People around the world want her back in the White House
1. She's a great role model for women
Michelle Obama has always championed women and girls, starting her own Let Girls Learn initiative.
Let Girls Learn was created by the Obamas to help adolescent girls around the world gain a quality education.
2. She rocked Carpool Karaoke
When Michelle Obama hopped in the car with James Corden, nobody could have predicted how amazing she would be.
Corden usually has superstars of the music world in his passenger seat, but Michelle held her own and won over a new legion of fans.
Much like her husband, she totally appeals to young people because she doesn't take herself too seriously.
3. Michelle + Barack = relationship goals
The Obamas have always come across as genuine - and genuinely in love.
It's clear they're a strong couple, which only makes both of them even more likeable.
How could you not love these two?
If we can't have Barack, can we have Michelle please?
4. Seriously, she's been a great FLOTUS
Michelle Obama hasn't overpowered her husband by any means, but she hasn't stayed in his shadow either and has become a respected role model in her own right as First Lady of the United States.

In the eight years her husband has been President, she's used her status to be a spokesperson for women everywhere and launched various campaigns and initiatives.
And she always stands by him. Sob.
5. She cares about kids' health
A fitness fanatic herself, Michelle Obama founded the initiative Let's Move, which aims to tackle childhood obesity and improve young people's health.

Realising the scale of the problem in the USA, she wanted to give children access to healthy, nutritious food and encourage them to move more.
6. And the welfare of veterans
Obama is a co-founder of Joining Forces, an initiative to help service members, veterans and their families allow access to employment, education and health services.

It aims to give vets the tools they need to succeed throughout their lives.
Michelle has also championed female veterans, asking them to speak at the White House about their experiences transitioning back into civilian life.
7. She writes a great speech
Michelle is an incredibly powerful orator.
So good are her speech-writing skills, it has been well documented that the new First Lady, Melania Trump , used some of her quotes in a speech in July.
8. She's a fantastic mum
Ever since Barack Obama entered the White House back in January 2009, his and Michelle's family values have always been apparent.
One of the most memorable parts of Obama's victory speech is his promise to get his daughters a puppy.
Even though they've grown up in the spotlight, Sasha and Malia have grown into intelligent and sophisticated women.
Who better to look after the USA?
9. She has banter with the Royals
Just look at her chilling in Kensington Palace.

Anyone who can hang out with the Royals like they've been best mates for years wins our gets our vote.
Who could forget her amazing appearance in the sketch made to advertise the Invictus Games, in which she "sent a message" to Prince Harry challenging the UK team.

10. She's dignified
Michelle won't stoop.
She always takes the high road.
11. The world needs a female President
We've got a female Prime Minister in the UK, a female Chancellor in Germany and we almost had a female President of the US (bad luck, Hillary).
Many were convinced we would be seeing our first female President in the White House.

Now Clinton has lost the election, those dreams have faded for at least another four years.
Come on, Michelle, you can pave the way for women in the Oval Office!
12. She's basically a goddess
