Earlier this year, left-wing filmmaker Michael Moore begged Michelle Obama to run for president in 2020; apparently, he is not alone. Washington insiders report that Democratic Party officials are also urging the former first lady to enter the race. They see Joe Biden’s campaign in free-fall, with polling and donations dropping, and they are panicked that Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren grows more inevitable by the day. Warren, they think, is way too liberal to win a national election. (They are correct.) Hence, the overtures to Mrs. Obama, the most admired woman in the country, according to Gallup polls. And not...

Former First Lady Michelle Obama will be the Democratic nominee to face Trump in 2020, says election expert Roger Stone. The current frontrunner, ex-Vice President Joe Biden, is simply “cannon fodder” for the Obama political machine, said Stone in his exclusive interview Tuesday with Alex Jones. “If Joe Biden wants to run, let him run,” said Stone. “He’s cannon fodder.” “The Obama machine will sweep him aside and I still predict that their strongest nominee – their most likely nominee – would be Michelle Obama.” Stone slammed Biden’s 24% polling position as a “sign of weakness” given his long political...

Michelle Obama has repeatedly said she doesn’t want to run for president, and she will not run for president. I believe her. But her husband once made a declaration that he would not run for president, until he did.

Can Michelle Obama sweep the nomination? Joe Biden joined 19 other Democrat presidential candidates who appear to be serving as crash dummies until Michelle Obama as America's sixth most popular and second most famous public figure jumps in. Former vice president Joe Biden's campaign launch was supposed to provide a left-of-center alternative to blunt Republican President Donald Trump's dominance in the key Midwest working-class electoral issues of national sovereignty and economic nationalism.

"Alright, listen. Michelle, she's not running for president," Obama said on Monday. Former President Barack Obama told Democrats at a campaign event in Las Vegas, Nevada on Monday that his wife, former First Lady Michelle Obama, is not running for president in 2020. “I know that people have been feeling anxious these days. People get frustrated, and they get angry. Folks come up to me and say, ‘Oh, Barack, what are we going to do? Oh, you know what about Michelle?'” Obama said. At the mention of Michelle, the crowd erupted into applause. “Alright, listen. Michelle, she’s not running for...

Former First Lady Michelle Obama marked her first TV appearance after leaving the White House on Thursday, as she had a sit-down with that strange androgyn, Ellen DeGenerate (pun intended), in her  Ellen DeGeneres Show at NBC. Joke aside, Michelle Obama’s message to the American people is very interesting, to say the least. Do you remember Barry Obama’s “Hope and change” mantra? His presidency was all about hope and change, yet he never told the American public that the change he was looking for was to transform the bastion of capitalism that is the US into some sort of a...

That’s the question about Michelle Obama’s intentions regarding a possible run for president in 2020. While she has consistently denied any interest in running, how plausible does that really sound? If the Democratic Party needed her and pleaded with her to run, does anyone really doubt she would? Here, then, are 12 reasons she will. She outpolls all other Democrats:According to a Zogby poll last month, she leads the pack of potential Democratic candidates, despite her insistence that she would “never run.” The only others even close are Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders – two very old white men. That’s...

Get out of the way Bernie, Joe, Elizabeth and Kamala. Democrats want former first lady Michelle Obama as their 2020 nominee. According to a new Zogby Analytics survey provided to Secrets, Obama is at the top of the list of Democratic choices with 22 percent support, a huge sign of support for somebody who has never run for office.(snip) Among the Democratic base, Obama does well, either ranking first or second with women, millennials and minorities. She is first among women, receiving 25 percent to 21 percent for Sanders and 17 percent for Biden. Sanders leads with younger voters but...

It cannot be overstated how eagerly the Democrats want to take back the White House in 2020. The Democrats face many obstacles in this effort, but the greatest threat is the fierce internal divisions within the party.
