Michelle Obama?s appearance at the Oracle Arena in Oakland, Calif., on March 28 is not part of a plan to launch her political career, sources say. It?s just a way to make money.
?There are some bright young people out there doing some amazing things,? the former first lady said last week.
?This is why I?m not going to run for president,? she added. ?Because I think it?s a better investment to invest in creating thousands of me?s.?
There was speculation that Michelle?s upcoming ?moderated conversation? in Oakland is a way of testing the waters for a possible run for president in 2020.
But a Dem power broker scoffed, ?She is just making money.?
The arena, home of the Golden State Warriors, has a 19,000-seat capacity, and the cheapest ticket is $93.50. First-row VIP seats are going for $3,150. A sellout would bring in more than $2 million.
Michelle?s memoir ?Becoming? ? part of a $65 million deal with Crown that includes a book from former President Barack Obama ? will hit stores in November.
