Obama Tells Viewers Malia And Sasha Will Never Hold Public Office President Obama made some comments that shocked viewers during his recent interview on the Tom Joyner Morning Show, when he took some time to discuss his daughters futures. Obama told viewers that he feels confident that Malia, 16, and Sasha, 13, will stay far away from public office. I am very doubtful that they will want to run for public office, you know, partly because theyve been listening to their mother, Obama claimed. If they want to do it through business, then I want them to have a business that is providing employment and opportunity for people who might not otherwise get it. If they want to do it through the arts, then I want their art to be informed by the great social issues of the day so they are illuminating that for other people, and telling stories that need to be told. While America was shocked that Obama revealed anything about his daughters at all, many breathed a sigh of relief that we may not have to see another Obama in office. Although, Obama has been far from accurate in predicting his daughters behavior before. What do you think?
