For all of her flaws Oprah seems like a pretty smart woman, which makes it doubtful she would actually be stupid enough to run for President. But only time will tell. Flattery and hubris can make otherwise rational people do strange things.

Her fake nature won’t sell in Iowa. So the primary business will take her down a step or two. If she did make it past the convention, I think the same list of twenty states that Hillary won....will line up for Oprah, and not one state more.

But it’s a free nation, and if she wants to run....let her. One odd factor is that she is an outsider to the DC machine and would not be so heavily tied to lobbyists.

Yeah sure. We are 20 trillion in debt with our troops scatterred all over the world, while our borders are overrun by invading barbarians. All brought to you by politicians and politically connected public servants. How on earth did this happen ? Could it be that these politicians and public servants have become nothing more than, lobbyist bought whores, who do not write or even read the bills they vote on ? While I don’t think Oprah would make a good President, I certainly think that a garbage collector might do better than these deep state cronies. At least they know how to balance a checkbook and realize that someone has to take the trash out.

"No Oprah! Haven’t we learned our lesson with celebrity" battle of the sexes "candidates?"

Oh, yeah--brilliant. The star of women's studies programs is already dying to run.

Go for it, and let the other nations throw all of their revenues into her campaign. We'll have a great war with several nuclear exchanges.

All of the supercomputers on the planet couldn't fool American conservatives into allowing her to get into office. Election day would be like the scene with people running to the polls on foot in "Head of State," but it would *not* only be Caucasians running to vote against her.

LOL!

It would be exactly like running Hillary again. Besides, most of her (and Hillary’s) constituency is heading for the nursing homes now.

Winfrey routinely endorsed fake science and spiritual hucksters. Winfrey routinely endorsed fake science and spiritual hucksters.

And gave away others people money. And got credit for it.

“Thank you for your money,” Winfrey told a crowd in Michigan upon departing. “I know how hard you all work.”

And this from a woman whose weight has yo-yo'd all over the place, diet after diet, because she has no self control.

Excellent writing, btw, Thanks!!

The “horrible effect” for the Democrats was the massive loss of power and the resulting mental psychosis they now suffer from.

I’m reading from this that the left thinks that Trump only won because they think that slack-jawed yokels in flyover-country saw a celebrity running for president and they think they can turn it back on us. ‘Look! Here’s another celebrity! She gives people cars!’

Sure. Run with that. It’ll be 1984 all over again.

Oprah as President makes my skin crawl. But why would it be any stupider for her to run than Trump? They are both billionaires with no prior political experience.

Orka Whinny-free is the perfect demonrat candidate, black enough to be a unquestioned racist.

President Trump was respected and admired for his business sense. Being a celebrity (which he was BECAUSE of his vast empire first) was just icing on the cake. I almost feel like he did the tv thing to amuse himself.

IMO, We haven’t seemed to learned from electing the eggheads of ‘higher learned’ that’ve run our Republic into the ground.

Meets all the Con. criteria, myself, I find it refreshing that NON-eggheads are seeing higher office. Balance a checkbook? You’re already better than 99% of the politicians.

It’s easy to see why Oprah’s speech is called astounding, masterful, empowering and inspiring and even compared with the Gettysburg address by liberals.
Even mushy headed thinkers like Ivanka Trump are heaping praise on her.

She became their Black Preacher chastising them, dishing out guilt and atonement in a five minute sermon.
And they loved her for it.

What was masterful is the way she changed the real dynamic from outrage over sexual predators to white guilt over skin color.
What does black history as seen by blacks have to do with sexual abuse?
Oprah explained it to them.

She compared sexual predation to racism, pumped up liberal white guilt, fed their anti-white racism, then explained to them why their roles
as enablers of sexual predators made them victims too.
Then she called them “magnificent” and “phenomenal”.

She explained why leftists are not culpable for the sexual predation they enabled or overlooked (ie: Bill Clinton, Harvey Weissman).

After all - the time wasn’t right to deal with the issue.
So they are victims of the culture just as much as the real victims.
But now, in the era of Donald Trump it is time to realize sexual predation is wrong and it is okay to speak out on the issue.
They no longer have to carry the heavy burden of remaining silent.

And now that the time is right they are such wonderful, brave people for understanding that.
And now it is okay to admit that yes, they do know there is a right and a wrong.

She blamed white American culture and non-liberals for the environment that enabled racism and sexual predation.
Then told her audience and other liberals the mere fact they cared, accepted their guilt are good people was atonement enough for them.

And the women in the audience sat there with their boobs hanging out and their lady parts all but visible and cheered and wept.
Oprah knew they were imperfect but innocent and she still loved them.
And now they loved her.
