The former First Lady of the United States, Michelle Obama bared her life and heart to the nation and the whole world in Netflix’s latest documentary, ‘Becoming’. The movie comes as coverage of her 34-stop tour to promote and talk about her book ‘Becoming’ and delving into the lives of people, in ways she hasn’t been able to do earlier.

The film inspired and encouraged many people while making others emotional. Michelle's struggles and her achievements came out in the candid moments that made people see her from a whole new angle and through a fresh lens. But what it also did was to make her fans want her to be a leader. Now, people are wishing for Michelle Obama to be the next Vice President of the United States.

People on Twitter have tons of proposals, ideas, and opinions, on why Michelle Obama should join Joe Biden in a campaign for the Vice President. Here are a few of them.

A fan on Twitter comments, "Watching #Becoming on @netflix @MichelleObama can you please be our next VP? ✌🏻Flag of United States."

Another fan wonders if the news that is going around is true or not. “Michelle Obama is #Becoming VP?  That’s what I’m hoping for! #AmericaNeedsMichelle”, she comments.

But as always, there are always counter comments and statements. A user opposes the idea saying, “Wrong America doesn't need #BigMikeObama."

Many fans are thinking that with the 2020 Presidential Election campaigns upcoming, the documentary seems to have come at the right time.

“May 6th Michelle Obama’s #Becoming I don’t want to BECOME too excited, but #Biden said he would love to have her as his VP. Possible precursor or am I dreaming? #BidenObama2020”, cheers a fan.

Another fan had anticipated that this might be a strategic move to push Michelle Obama towards her candidacy for the upcoming elections. In fact, Joe Biden had mentioned in a speech that he would be happy to have Michelle Obama run as his VP.

“There may not be a better way to roll out a VP candidate than to release a hugely inspiring and unifying @netflix doc right when the country most needs to be inspired and unified. Gonna call my shot, and 🙏🏾 that May 6 is more than just a 'film premiere.'#Becoming @MichelleObama.”

According to recent reports, before the premiere of the Netflix documentary, a newly-launched committee called 'Draft Michelle Obama' was reported to have pushed the Democratic presidential nominee, Joe Biden, to select Michelle Obama as his running mate. And now the public opinion and reactions on the Netflix film has seconded that.

Could this be all driving towards another era of Biden-Obama?

‘Becoming’ is currently streaming on Netflix.
