Michelle Obama says she's not running for office
The Hill ^ | 05/05/18 | JOHN BOWDEN

Posted on 05/06/2018 9:43:04 PM PDT by repentant_pundit

Former first lady Michelle Obama said Saturday that she isn't interested in running for office, cautioning that "it doesn't matter who runs" for the presidency until the U.S. becomes unified.

The remark came in an interview with actress Tracee Ellis Ross at the United State of Women Summit in Los Angeles when Obama appeared to respond to an audience member urging her to seek office.

"Well, that's a whole other story because, that's not the answer either. And when I hear people say, 'you run,' it's part of the problem. We still didn't get 'yes we can' right," she said, referencing her husband's 2008 presidential campaign slogan. "It's not 'yes you can,' it's 'yes we can.' And until we get that right, it doesn't matter who runs."

Obama, who has repeatedly said she has no plans to run for office, called the search for a unifying president a "distraction."

"Change starts close to home. So looking for the next person to run … I don't mean to cut that off, but that's been our distraction," she said. " 'We're going to wait for the next person to save us.' We thought it was going to be Barack Obama, but he didn't end racism."

“It’s not ‘yes you can,’ it’s ‘yes we can.’ And until we get that right, it doesn’t matter who runs.”

You’re never going to get it right, Mrs. Obama, because it’s a demonic doctrine, doomed to fail. The only “oneness” God accepts is this:

For he himself is our peace, who has made us both one and has broken down in his flesh the dividing wall of hostility [between Jew and Gentile] by abolishing the law of commandments expressed in ordinances, that he might create in himself ONE NEW MAN IN PLACE OF THE TWO, so making peace, and might reconcile us both to God in ONE body through the cross, thereby killing the hostility.—Ephesians 2

IN Adam or IN Christ: the only two races in existence. Period. No spiritual fellowship between them. None.

How exactly is the US supposed to be unified?

Then if it doesn’t matter who runs for president because we aren’t unified, then she is ok with Trump. Since we aren’t unified, per her own criteria, whoever is president doesn’t matter. This, it’s fine that Trump is president.

I know how it feels, michelle- I’m not going to run this time either. It’s sooo sad, just so worthless feeling. Maybe we could go on opra and cry about it, get somebody to beg us to run...Your friend matthew.

Except for the comment "...until the U.S. becomes unified", which is a fantasy, her other comments actually make some sense! Am I wrong? What's the catch here?

Well, I think the catch is that a person can only unify this country by eliminating everyone who disagrees.

Shouldn't she be running back to the Himalayas to rejoin her Yeti tribe. They must miss her.

She is lying.

The only question is will she run for Senate first like Hillary, or does she think her silly celebrity status is enough to let her run for ‘Precedent’ as her first job.

Bullbleep! She'll run for something,most likely the Senate,once she's “urged” to run.

Speaks purty gud.

IIRC it was either Plugs Biden or Dirty Harry who observed,during the '08 campaign,that Osama Obama was clean,articulate and didn't speak with a black accent.

She is an unlikable person despite the mass marketing campaign by the media; her anti-white hatred can’t be concealed. I’ve never heard anyone (white or black) say anything positive about her (in real life, not “TV people”).
