Michelle Obama’s Next Move (President? Supreme Court Justice?)
Newsweek ^ | December 3, 2012 | Allison Samuels

Posted on 12/02/2012 7:42:46 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Chatting with a group backstage on the set of Jimmy Kimmel Live! in October, Michelle Obama made it clear that she wasn’t thinking about what she might do in the future. “I’m just looking ahead to getting Barack back in office and continuing the work he’s been doing,” she said. “Supporting him is my focus.”

But others think the first lady—who spent the past four years seeking to better the lives of military families and fighting to end childhood obesity before becoming one of the stars of her husband’s reelection effort this fall—could have bigger things ahead of her, if she so chooses. “Michelle is Superwoman. What can’t she do?” Samuel L. Jackson recently told Newsweek. “That’s why people love her. She can be on the Supreme Court and anywhere else she wants. She can be the president. She’s history and she’ll stay history because she is so amazingly smart and together.”

Jackson isn’t the only person thinking along these lines. “I’d love to see her get more into politics because it would be a breath of fresh air in D.C.,” says Democratic Rep. James Clyburn of South Carolina. “She’s honest and straightforward, which is not what you see in Washington much. She is exactly what we need around here.”(continued)

The Parells between the USA and the old Roman empire is so striking.
A crazy Caesar once put a horse into the Senate. So why does the idea of a crazy POS putting a horses ass on the Supreme court seem all that out of line?

Probably, but she`ll have to wait for Hillary to finish her eight years. By then, she could have Van Jones as a running mate and sweep to a 40-state victory.

Her next move should be to explain why she lost her lawyer license quickly followed by how she and her husband could afford that Chicago house they bought years ago.

Justice Roberts’ behavior after that Supreme Court vote on Obamacare seemed . . . odd, sort of spacey and “cowed”. The modus operandi of the “O” bunch (as we saw in Petraeus regarding Benghazi) leads me to wonder, “What did they possibly hold over Roberts’ head to get what they wanted?” I’m a sort of innocent when it comes to the Chicago “way” of doing things. - I suppose they (the Thugocracy) count on the naivete of normal people to lead them into things like that.

The fact Roberts changed his initial vote is indicative of Ozero’s “Chicago Way” - threats and intimidation.

I believe SOMETHING happened between his decisions - perhaps a threat to his adopted children?

She can be on the Supreme Court and anywhere else she wants. She can be the president.

In modern America's never ending quest to have the dumbest, most racist, most incompetent, most anti-American people possible as president and in other high level positions.....

After society collapses a bit further I expect to see her on that pawn show out of Detroit...yelling, demanding and sputtering incoherently. Probably, she’ll be trying to pawn some broken pieces of White House porcelain. Bwahahahahaha!

After obama was reelected nothing that happens now would surprise me.
The media and the shadow puppet masters could get Benedict Arnold elected today.

Pay no attention to her revoked law license..... She’s black so she qualifies. Get it?

I remember well that Kerry was ‘in Vietnam.’ I think he was there for about 2 weeks.

You’re right...he’s the modern day Benedict Arnold and he almost won.
