No "non print version" due to the visage present in the original at wnd.com. You can go look for yourself if you like.

Anyway, compared to the rest of the potential field, you know, okra wimpfree and various other celebs, blah, blah, blah.....

[Buckeye McFrog]

She has zero experience doing ANYTHING and not enough time to get any. Hillary and Obama had a decade head start lining up do-nothing legislative seats.

[Vaquero]

[relee]

She will run in 2020 because she wants to guarantee President Trump a win?

[A Formerly Proud Canadian]

One reason why Moo-shill will run in 2020...

...in a PERFECT world, she/he/it will be the ONLY ONE of ‘team Obola’ that is NOT residing in facilities courtesy of the US BOP!

Hilly/Billy
ValJar
Joe ‘Plugs’
Lurch
Comrade Holder
Barry Oboogaloo, etc.

...all serving under the US BOP...

... in a perfect world...

It would really take balls to challenge Trump in 2020. Therefore I believe “Michelle” is an ideal candidate!

[treetopsandroofs]

Mike’s handlers have it tough... too many photos and video of his junk, but if he comes out, he’ll lose the Democrat “bigot” vote, and will no longer serve Big Media to proclaim for the next few years how much better looking he is than the current first lady.

[subterfuge]

What fool would run against ‘Shellie in the primary after the shenanigans the DNC pulled against Crazy Bernie? On the other hand, they’d be wasting their time but they might get a free house out of the deal.

[jmaroneps37]

Let’s hope it happens because then Barry will be fair game and his “Hawaii” birth certificate will be peeled like a grape - but that’s just a nice dream She won’t run and wouldn’t get past the first few debates.

12 reasons Michelle Obama will run in 2020

And one big reason why she won't: she's not stupid.

[ifinnegan]

Here is what is horrible. I think she has a chance to win, compared to the other potential candidates.

Our populace is that brainwashed and lemming-like.

[Teacher317]

Please please please please PLEASE let her win the nomination!!!!!

[skinndogNN]

She is a black woman. Which means she has a double force field for the mainstream media.

She doesn’t have to do anything. She just has to play those two cards, and the MSM will try to LIFT her into the White House.

Same thing with Kamala Harris.

[AF_Blue]

Will Barry introduce her as his “Baby Mama”?

[treetopsandroofs]

Almost all of us here consider a “transgender man” to mean, because of DNA, a woman who is dressing as a man, or more colloquially, a “fake man”.

May I ask why so many of us afford the bigoted racist Michael Robinson “Obama” the respect of calling him a woman?

Because we don’t believe our lying eyes, or because he hasn’t “come out”?

When did Michael ever afford America any respect?

[windsorknot]

From George Washington.....to Michelle 0bama. How far can we fall?

[Harpotoo]

No Black will ever win the presidency for Years to come after the Obummers!

[Rannug]

She won’t be the first woman to lose her bid for the presidency

[bigbob]

I can see them running her to deny Bernie, but it will cause civil war. Especially if Pocohauntas, Kamilla, Gillibrand, and other womyn are still in the mix.

[ridesthemiles]

Just what this country needs:

A woman who wrote her College thesis titled:

‘WHY I HATE AMERICA’........

Only the brain dead Democrats would nominate that for President.

[Dr. Sivana]

1. She outpolls all other Democrats
A lot of people perform well when they have not been "the candidate". That goes for the Elon Musk types, too. Trump was the oddball who had the resources, will, skills and timing.

2. According to a Zogby poll last month, she leads the pack of potential Democratic candidates, despite her insistence that she would “never run.”
If I am a high profile Democrat primary opponent, I would politely pointed out that President Trump was already challenged by the a former First Lady from a presidency popular with Democrats ... how'd that work out?

3. She wouldn’t be the first to deny her real intention:TWICE Hillary Clinton ruled out running for president and then did exactly that – in 2008 and again in 2012. It was the smart thing to do then, and it’s the smart thing to do now.
4. Obama did the same thing. The difference is that in 2008 the Democrat inner circle wanted an alternative to same-old same-old Clinton. Many in 2020 are still smarting for the seats that Obama has cost them since 2010, and aren't interested in continuing to pump the oxygen out of the room.
5. There’s simply no one else:Look at the potential candidate for the Democrats! Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren – are you kidding? It’s almost a joke. You don’t think Barack and Michelle Obama realize that? Hillary Clinton doesn’t even register on the polls.

Obama himself wasn't registering in 2005. Carter and Clinton were low polling in 1973 and 1989 (Clinton's speech bombed in the '88 convention). For Dems, that means nothing. A Harris, Patrick, Klobuchar, Musk, etc. could catch on.

6.It’s smart to play hard to get – and that’s what she’s doing: It’s way too early for any serious candidate to throw his or her hat into the ring. Any candidate who does so now is not a serious candidate.

President Carter may disagree, and Kerry's early entry helped play him thorugh rough waters. There's going to be a LOT of candidates, and only so much organizational and fund-raising talent. Trump was a unique candidate at a unique time. The Dems don't have a Trump. Mrs. Obama would at least have to quietly pass word that there is a plan to keep the right people on hold.

7. Even on an unauthorized fake Facebook page she’s got nearly 500,000 supporters: Impressive, no? She’s also the darling of Twitter.
Let me know when she has an account that has 10% of Trump's. She has to do better than Ron Paul numbers to be the overwhelming favorite to make the field give way.

8. She detests Trump and needs to restore the Obama legacy he “stole”: If she really perceived she could win, why wouldn’t she run? Her children will be grown. She will be bored in another year out of the limelight.

She cannot possibly run on the platform of "new ideas", and Barack Obama was a LOT more popular personally than his policies, which is why we have a Republican majority. Obama usually could speak in ways that photograph, record , and televise well. Even with media massaging, Mrs. Obama will have deficiencies nearly as bad as Mrs. Clinton on that score. Mrs. Clinton was far more practiced at being in confrontational settings.

9. No matter what she says, she adores the spotlight: Look at all the hype she gets. Look at all the interviews she gives. Look at all the stories urging her to run. Not thinking about it is not even believable. Despite what she says, she loves politics and government:She’s never going back to law.

I don't know if she has will. DJT easily tired Mrs. Clinton out. While Mrs. Obama is younger, I get the vibe that she likes her vacations, and likes to get her attention on her terms. She can do that as a former First Lady. She and her husband may be able to anoint the next nominee in a way Mrs. Clinton cannot. I see no evidence of the Fire in the Belly that is needed against a man who will fight back when needed. (Mr. Obama did not have that problem with McCain or Romney)

10. She really believes she’s a role model: How many articles have you seen about what a great role model she is for young women – especially young women “of color”? She believes her own press clippings. The media adore her almost as much as she adores herself, but not quite. She has a proven political team – her husband’s: One thing you can say about Barack Obama is that he ran two great campaigns. He didn’t do it alone. He did it with clever operatives, plenty of grass-roots support, great press and terrific social media. That team can be reassembled. In fact they are waiting in the wings for marching orders. It really might be the best the Democrats could do. She wants to be virtually drafted: Remember the Obama strategy of leading from behind? That’s exactly what Michelle Obama is positioning herself to do in politics. It might just happen. It would solve many real problems for the Democratic Party, which is shambles right now.


There is half a party infrastructure and half a dozen candidates with varying levels of skills, chits and resources that don't want to dance to those who have shown little interest in paying back favors. The poobahs of the Dem party also may have serious doubts. Mrs. Obama would not want to be the one who further diminishes Obama's legacy in an embarrassing defeat. Remember: The Obamas prefer to clear the field of decent candidates until they get a patsy like McCain or Romney to run against. Trump is neither. Trump is also president, and even now may be finding hidden bodies (not all, but enough) that the Obamas may wisely wish to remain buried.

Mr. Farah may like attention getting headlines, but he is 0 for 10 on reasons. It ain't happening.
