Michelle Obama to take childhood obesity drive on Mike Huckabee's TV show

Washington, February 18 (ANI): Michelle Obama is set to voice her concerns about childhood obesity with an appearance on Mike Huckabee's Fox News program.

The US First Lady will discuss the pitfalls of the condition with Huckabee, the potential future Republican presidential candidate who fought weight problems of his own and eventually dropped more than 100 pounds.

Huckabee praised the first lady for her anti-childhood obesity initiative, "Let's Move," CBS News reported.

He told U.S. News and World Report it "is not a left/right, liberal/conservative, Democrat/Republican issue. This is an issue that falls beyond what I call the 'horizontal' issues of left and right and rises to the 'vertical' level of up or down."

Huckabee also intends to quiz the mum-of-two on other topics, such as life in the White House, in what will be her first appearance on Fox News. (ANI)
