Charlie Gibson interviewed Michelle Obama at Invesco Field Stadium on Thursday.
(ABC News)
When asked to what extent her husband consulted with her on his choice for vice president, she said, "We talked about how he was thinking about it. … But we probably do what most couples do. The first thing we talk about is our kids, how they're doing."
And even though she plays devil's advocate from time to time, she said, "I trust Barack's judgment implicitly. I say this all the time, in the 20 years I've known him, Barack hasn't disappointed me. I stopped completely questioning everything he does."
Before they were married, she said the two were engaged in "intense debates about, how do you make change."
But she added that she thought her husband was "too smart to go into politics."
"I always tried to talk him out of it. But he always talked me into it," she said with a laugh.
But as her husband prepares to accept his party's nomination, Michelle Obama doesn't need further convincing.
"I am proud, so proud, of what he's accomplished, and I'm glad that I didn't stand in the way."
