Fifty-nine percent think she shouldn’t run — and 17 percent said they weren’t sure or had no opinion on the matter.

She would be a disaster of a president.

I’ve NEVER been an Oprah fan.

How much does she weigh?

What is her waist size?

Is she addicted to Weight Watchers?

Isn't it unhealthy to gain & lose so much weight?

She was strong enough to overcome a crack addiction. Sounds likes she is as qualified as Barry was.

That worked SOOOOO well for McGovern and his treated for depression running mate, Thomas Eagleton, back in '72. /s

Yes, times and the voters of this nation have changed, but still....

No, it’s the DNC that wants her to run. Otherwise Mad Maxine is the best they’ve got.

NO, I like Oprah Winfrey and her close friend, Harvey Weinstein for POTUS & VP, respectively. “Go Oprah & Harvey”....NOT”!!!

How many of that 24% in favour of her running were Freepers following the Br’er Rabbit strategy?

She’d get 0.01% of the male vote and maybe 1/3 of the female vote. I think she should do it.
