with friends like us.......

Can the fact that she so articulately and forcefully supported women last night be a mere coincidence?


While there is a case to be made for wanting to go back to a more traditional path to the WH--i.e., those who actually LEARN the craft of governance prior to running for the highest office, I do find it scurrilous and frankly ridiculous, to be conflating OPRAH with TRUMP--as many are doing here. And, I say to them: "have you lost your f'king minds?

It’s a counter to the eager speculation that she might run, which also didn’t wait until she announced anything.

Take a closer look. It isn't that benign.

...or knocked over a bag of Puppy Chow...

...or had takeout chow mein...

...or drove on Main Street...

I know there was something she did.

the last thing we need is another inexperienced celebrity in the Oval. True, she'd probably surround herself with people who are more like-minded to us, but I want someone who actually understands what government is, and further, how to DO it successfully. She's a media personality and business person, but a government expert, she ain't! As impossible as it's been to get tRump to separate from his business interests, I don't see how she'd be any more likely to completely step away from the empire she's (legitimately) built. If it were any other celebrity, left, right, or center, I'd feel exactly the same way.

Anyone announced or proposed is going to be torn apart.

That said, we need pros to run, not vanity candidates, CEOs, or celebs.

And she put anti-vax jackass Jenny McCarthy on a nationally televised platform from which to project her toxic bullshit.

At some point, I would watch my own disemboweling in preference to seeing Trump's idiot face.

And Oprah is a pretty low bar.

Kook Brazilian megachurch pastor who treats people's cancer with fucking psychic surgery!!!

Oprah loves him.

We should make a list of the cranks she's promoted. Did Gwyneth Paltrow ever hawk her jade eggs on Oprah?

that if "the People" wanted Winfrey to run, then she would run. The resistance on this thread is just showing that if Oprah were consistent with her position, she won't run. (I know, it's circular reasoning . . . . )

"It's up to the people," Winfrey's longtime partner, Stedman Graham, told The Times. "She would absolutely do it."

people saying they want someone with experience. The reason it’s being talked about on here is because it’s all over Twitter, WaPo and CNN.

so I've been giving her a hard time for awhile now.

running for president.

There's a lot more involved than that.

We can attack anybody we want to for anything we want, any time!

And not with a billionaire TV personality currently driving this country into a massive toilet, day by day.

Democrats need to opt for experienced political leadership as a non-negotiable requirement for the presidency. Let Oprah do some genuine good and put some of her vast fortune in support of a for-real Democratic candidate in 2020.

that doesn't mean I want to see them in the Oval Office.

She promotes nonsense. She is no more qualified than Gwynneth Paltrow (or Trump, for that matter).
