How many personal assistant does Michelle Obama has?

Answer 1

Most sources say she has about 24 paid staff. This is actually a typical number: over the past several presidencies, as First Ladies have become media figures and have also been heavily involved in charitable endeavors, the number of staff they needed has grown.

Answer 2

She doesn't have an unusual number of assistants. This is another of those internet myths. She has the same number of assistants that her predecessor, Laura Bush, had. But this gets to a larger question. Many people misunderstand what the First Lady does, and they wonder why she even needs assistants. Years ago, perhaps the job was to mainly smile for the cameras when the president was being photographed. But in our modern world, the role of the First Lady has continued to expand. This probably began in the late 1920s (Louise "Lou" Hoover, wife of Herbert Hoover, did some radio broadcasts and was a passionate advocate for the Girl Scouts) and it expanded further under Eleanor Roosevelt.

Today, the First Lady may represent the United States at certain events (Mrs. Obama represented America at the Olympics, for example), or meet with advocates for certain worthy causes, or give addresses at schools and colleges, or participate in educational and civic events. The more active the First Lady, the more she needs a staff to help her, coordinating her schedule, planning the events, making sure she has the security and privacy she needs, inviting the guests, etc. So while the job may be unpaid and largely ceremonial, it is a very popular position, and in fact, many First Ladies have been even more popular than their husband the president.
