Michelle Obama: Who Democrats Really Want for President?
MSN ^ | 4/22/2023 | John Rossomando

Could Michelle Obama be a Darkhorse Candidate for the Democrats?: Hillary Clinton paved a track as the former first U.S. First Lady to run for president in her own right. Could Michelle Obama be the next?

Michelle Obama? Would She Run?

With weak support for President Joe Biden among Democrats and questions mounting about his age, Obama could be a dark horse candidate for the Democrats. She remains very popular among Democrats.

“Democrats see Barack Obama’s presidency as a type of modern ‘Camelot,’ the term often used to refer to John F. Kennedy’s presidency, when a young, smart and appealing president and his sophisticated young wife occupied the White House. As one historian has described it, ‘The term Camelot has been used retrospectively to refer to the Kennedy administration, which lasted between January 1961 and November 1963, capturing the charisma of Kennedy and his family,’” Merrill Matthews, resident scholar with the Dallas, Texas-based Institute for Policy Innovation, wrote in The Hill last month.

“Democrats are nostalgic for the charisma they perceived emanating from Obama and his family, while no one has ever associated charisma with Joe Biden.”

Obama vs. Ron DeSantis?

Democratic political strategist Douglas Schoen wrote in January that Obama would be the only Democrat who could be a match for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who polls well with Independents. DeSantis trails former President Donald Trump by a wide margin.

It is beneath her, but she could be convinced that she would not really have to do anything and that the current Soros/Obama regime would continue to manage things.

The Biden election proved you can stay in your mansion, and the Swamp will deliver the votes.

The trashing of Biden in the MSM is gaining ground.

This article is a scary, because running Michelle Obama wouldn’t be a bad move for the Democrats. She has the name recognition that helped Biden get into the White House. And ANY criticism of her would be labelled racist, sexist, or both.

Michelle, of course, wouldn’t have to do a thing while in office. Just sign papers now and again. The same folks who give orders to Biden now would just give orders to Michelle.

Deion Sanders is creating a lot of excitement in Colorado. Very likable. Thinks taking it up the butt is a choice.

The rats could be scared that he’d go GOP. Quit coaching.

Maybe, if there had been a poll back then, Democrats would have wanted Jackie Kennedy to run for president (at least before she married Onassis). That doesn’t mean she wanted to run or would have run or would have won.

IF the lamestream media had reported on his extra bedroom activities he'd never stood a chance.

If they could convince her, Americans are stupid enough to vote for her in droves.

I’m sure the Democrats would just LOVE for DeSantis with his six-week ban and Disney drubbing to be the nominee! He’s probably the only one besides Pence and possibly Scott who would lose to her.

only in modern, diverse America can the woman who proudly exclaimed that she was never proud of this country until it elected her fag ‘husband’, be a front runner for President.

What qualifies da ho to be President? Being the wife of America’s first non-American president?

Normally I would say that Moochie doesn't have the temperament for campaigning. But after Biden hid in his basement for the entire campaign, she might be able to handle it.

And this might be exactly why the Left has been stoking the racial fires. It wants a real angry racist in the WH. Not some soft-spoken Halfrican pretty boy.

The only Dem running for Pres. that, if he wins, won’t make me feel like putting a gun to my head is RFK Jr.

If anyone else the Dems are thinking about running...Biden, Michelle Obama, Newsom, Buttegig etc....actually wins the election, this country is truly finished.
