Another potential First Lady is set to join the ladies of the The View. Following Cindy McCain's April appearance, Michelle Obama will be a guest host on the show's June 18 episode. Obama was offered a guest appearance, but wanted to try her hand at hosting instead. This will be her first appearance on the talk show; Barack Obama has been a guest twice before. As a guest host, Michelle Obama will help conduct interviews, participate in the show's "hot topics" segment, and chat about current events. She'll also be interrupted by her co-hosts on numerous occasions. The guest lineup for Obama's episode hasn't been set yet. Cindy McCain interviewed Craig Ferguson when she guest-hosted.
It was smart of Michelle Obama to guest-host instead of appearing in an interview segment. She'll get plenty of screen time without all of the attention being on her. Still, I would prefer to learn more about her in a traditional interview. I don't have it in me to watch an entire episode of The View just to get a sense of Michelle Obama's personality.

Isn't it convenient that this wasn't scheduled till AFTER he secured the nomination? She is a very divisive figure who often says very controversial statements that can hurt Obama in an election.
