My view is that the Dems found with the election of Obama that qualifications, experience and even personal attractiveness were not really necessary after all: the only thing that matters is being a celebrity. Obama was the Kardashian of the political world, a nobody whom they successfully sold simply through massive publicity. Voters didn’t even ask what he had ever done, what his ideas were, or anything about his background because it wasn’t necessary. He was a celebrity and, on top of that, a black celebrity.

So I think it not at all unlikely that Michelle Obama will be the Dem candidate. Or, if they can get the celebrity machine going fast enough, it could be Chelsea Clinton.

That is the other definition of what I was saying. What you call “celebrity” I call “ability to enrage conservatives”. Sadly, they have become one and the same. People now become most famous more quickly by being, at its heart, anti-Christian.
