Maybe I should keep mum, because the DNC will surely be monitoring, but I still think Kerry is Oprah's VP.

He goes where he's sent, does what he's told, without being flashy about it.

He can navigate the beltway. He's dealt with Clinton and Obama factions in DC, and came out alright.

Foreign Policy? Check.

Ditto military experience.

Handsome in a pasty white kinda way and that suit hangs on him pretty good. Middle class whites might actually vote a ticket that he's on.

Only problem, how much taller is he than her? For DNC, it's all about image...

This is happening way too soon. You can’t sustain interest for three years.

By 2019, half the people will think she was already President.

I don’t see career swamp critters like Gray Beaver, Corey Booker, and Oakland Hoe Kamala Harris stepping aside for Oprah.

Spend a bit of time on the net - the OWS tanked after she came out for Obama. All of this is well documented and I did post just a couple of the ‘backlash’ articles out on the web, most my the mass media.

It seems her ‘fan base’ isn’t into identity politics.

I spent some time on the net. Her net worth is $2.8 billion. Her network had its most watched year in 2016. I should take such a hit.

In this case, it may be more of “activating the base” for the mid-terms as Dems have done poorly in elections over the last few years.

As I mentioned earlier, the Dems are on the ropes most places.

After endorsing Obama, however, Oprah’s ratings fell 7%

The ratings continued to tank and eventually the OWS show closed.

I will say that many credit Oprah for both Obama’s nomination nd election, that her endorsement was ‘worth a million votes’.

From that viewpoint her status as a ‘kingmaker’ has certainly risen.
