Any bets on her VP? Michelle?

What a joke this is becoming.

So typical of the cynical, divisive, and identity politics left: ‘We could run a black candidate, or a woman candidate, but how about a black woman candidate?’

She is probably more qualified than Obama was who was only slightly more qualified than Howdy Doody.

Maybe.

Or perhaps Oprah’s equally racist BFF Gayle King.

Indeed! :-)
That dieting company will never again see that kind of sudden stock value rise.

Do not dismiss her out of hand.

People would argue that she has everything needed, at least, to make the run as a “Dream” Democrat candidate:
- Name recognition
- Rich
- Successful Businesswoman in a tough industry
- Something of a Philanthropist
- Well spoken and appears to be at least literate. (She is a University of Tenn graduate)

Oh and Black, Female and possibly Gay (certainly Gay friendly) - a seeming Trifecta for modern Democrat Party identity politics.

Given the massive hit to her personal wealth taken when she openly supported Obama, I have to wonder if she would ever be a player - but stranger things have happened in US politics. She has faced massive backlash for her support of Obama and again when she dared to say something positive about Trump. Seems *Talk Show Hosts* aren’t allowed a public political opinion....at last by their ‘fans’.

Not having held a prior elective office no longer seems to be an issue as well....

Joke or not - this is not going away...

The whole idea of another O! so soon after the last one is whack, but I'll play along.

It would have to be someone who balances the ticket, someone with actual government experience.

someone with gravitas, instead of star power.

Some one on the other end of the color spectrum.

Someone with the opposite number when gauging BMI.

Who could it be?

"Someone call me?"

Given that the WaPo the NY Times and most of the other Left-leaning mass media is pushing this -** No. ** I do not expect this to go away.

The Dems will put up a candidate at some point - if it is not Oprah, then and only then will it go away, right down the old memory hole of the Media.

In the meantime, “Oprah for Prez” generates a buzz for a party that is on the ropes.

Yes, vote early and vote often, hehehe.

Wouldn't an Oprah/M.Obummer be a nightmare ticket?? Nobody in flyover country would vote for them but I can imagine the DemoRats actually considering such a thing.

The media has only limited control on things. Power brokers can put a stop to this and the media will report and probably spin it.

If you thought Trump had his hands full with the GOP swamp faction, you ain’t seen NUTHIN’ yet.

Beltway Democrats who think they are entitled play by Tony Soprano rules. They’ll make mincemeat out of her to maintain their positions.
