President Barack Obama, the decision whether to stay or leave Washington after his term ends will rest with first lady Michelle, and his youngest daughter Sasha,
Politico reports.
" 'Cause she's, you know, obviously they — and Michelle — have made a lot of sacrifices on behalf of my cockamamie ideas, the running for office and things," Obama joked in an interview with ABC’s Barbara Walters on a special edition of "20/20" Friday.
By the time Obama's second term is over, Malia will be in college, while Sasha will be a sophomore in high school. Both girls attend Sidwell Friends School in Washington, D.C.
"So we’ve gotta — you know we gotta make sure that she's doin' well … until she goes off to college," the president said. "Sasha will have a big say in where we are."
ABC News reports that if Obama were to stay and maintains a residence in D.C. after his term, he would be the first ex-president to do so since Woodrow Wilson.
