CBS News reports:

Rep. Michele Bachmann told CBS Radio News on Tuesday that she would be “delighted” to be able to have foster children living in the White House if she is elected president.

“Foster children are children that come out of very challenging circumstances and I think it’d be marvelous to have foster children in the White House,” Bachmann told CBS Radio News National Correspondent Dan Raviv.

Bachmann says she and her husband Marcus have “raised” 23 foster children – all girls – in addition to their biological children. Bachmann usually took the children in when they were teenagers, and has not named them out of concern for their privacy.
