CNN.com Poll: ‘Should Michelle Obama Run For President in 2020?’ By Matthew Balan Created 2009-04-06 17:50

CNN.com Graphic | NewsBusters.orgIt appears that CNN’s “Michelle mania” has reached a new level. After referring to the Obamas as the “royal family of the United States” on April 1 [0], the network conducted a web “quick vote” on Monday on whether the first lady should run for her husband’s position in 2020.

The results, however, did not bode well for “mighty Michelle,” as one guest on CNN labeled Mrs. Obama [0]. Before the poll was taken down, 83% were opposed to the idea, while 17% were in favor. As the graphic states plainly, it is not a scientific poll.

As much as this “Michelle mania” is apparently running rampant abroad, as the network would lead you to believe from these reports, these results may mean that “America’s unofficial royalty [0]” have some obstacles to overcome before any political dynasty could become a reality.

yeah I can agree. I was hospitalized back in 07 twice and the channel selection was sickening.

Who came up with this poll? She's even less qualified than her HUSBAND fer-cryin-out-loud!

The MSM is giving these people way more credit than they deserve!

You should have worn earplugs. When we go to the airport...I don’t sit near a TV...can’t stand the mundane rattle of the so called news reader so...we move away from it.

Can you see them asking that question of Laura Bush one month into the W's admin? I can't even see them thinking it!

I'm tired of all the fawning over Moose Caboose, and her "arms". Her style. Her grace. Her beauty.

Laura was an exceptionally beautiful first lady. She truely carried herself with dignity and class. And didn't need anyone to carry her water for her, to convince anyone else of looks, class, or dignity.

I seriously question whether the USA will be a democratic republic in 2020.

Interesting.

The honeymoon period is not over and CNN is having a fun poll. They must have too much time on their hands and are bored.

Is this a veiled attempt to show that they are not happy with the present Pres_ent? They want him out but don't have the words for it?
Has the Pres_ent bumbled so much this week that there is nothing to report to make him look good?

Barak should find this poll extremely insulting, not because his wife is not wanted, but because of the timing.

OH, COME ON!!! Why don’t they just bring the bill to end Presidential Term Limits to the floor and vote on that???

This is getting ridiculous. They are talking about 2020, already?

Hey CNN — how about we see if the country survives even a year under Obama’s policies FIRST? The way things are going no-one is going to have to worry about an election in 2020.

“I am really getting tired this BS.”

My 85-year-old friend was relieved that N. Korea sent up a missile because it gave us a break from Michelle Mania for a while.
