'Where will you live if Obama loses, do you like Barack, are you the President?' Michelle faces some tough questions on campaign trail... from elementary school kids

On a campaign stop to Virginia on Thursday, Michelle Obama was asked some hard-hitting questions.
One asked where the president was at that moment, something that initially stumped the first lady. Another asked where the Obamas were planning to live if they lost the upcoming election.
And this time, it wasn’t reporters quizzing her – instead, they were school-aged children at a local YMCA’s after-school program.

The first lady made a stop at the Ron Rosner Family YMCA in Fredericksburg on Thursday afternoon, meeting with two after-school classes of middle school and elementary school-aged children ahead of delivering a speech in Richmond. 
According to the report filed by a reporter travelling with the first lady, the children at the after-school program were not informed of Mrs Obama’s visit. One child kept yelling, ‘Oh my God! I’m going to die!’
After the initial shock wore off, the school-aged children began asking her a whole host of questions as she moved around the tables, meeting and greeting them.
A shrewd-thinking child asked her where the president was. Mrs Obama answered: ‘He’s at work.’ The president was, in fact, in Colorado for a campaign event.

Another child offered a follow-up question, asking where the Obamas – including Sasha, Malia, and the family dog Bo – would live if Mr Obama lost in November.
The pool report read: ‘The First Lady said they could figure that out later.’
One asked if she was the president, to which Mrs Obama replied: ‘I am not a president. I am married to the president.’
The children seemed to feel more at ease with the first lady, as one student asked her if she likes the president. ‘I do like Obama,’ she said, ‘I like him a lot.’

One boy asked then asked the first lady if Mr Obama will be beaten by Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, saying that he saw a lot of Romney on television.
Mrs Obama acknowledged, ‘He does have a lot of commercials’
Preceding her visit to the YMCA, the first lady was in nearby Richmond to address hundreds of people at the University of William and Mary, the Richmond Times-Dispatch reported.
She addressed delegates at the battleground state, saying in her 30-minute speech: ‘Think about it – 110 votes – that could mean just a couple of votes in your neighbourhood. Just a single vote in your apartment building.’
