The first lady will fill in for President Obama by traveling to Copenhagen next month and pushing for Chicago to host the 2016 Olympic Games, the Chicago Sun-Times reports. The president said he is too busy with health care reform to lead the US delegation himself. The International Olympic Committee will decide in 3 weeks whether Chicago, Tokyo, Madrid, or Rio de Janeiro will host the summer games.

Anyhow, I think it's nice that the first lady is helping out her husband with such delegation matters, especially since she's a lawyer (I think?) and has had experience in negotiations and politics.
It's also a good move that Obama doesn't take the time out of the delicate health care reform agenda to discuss a slightly less important issue as the hosting city of the next Olympics.
