(9,350 posts)I would not like to see Oprah Winfrey run as Donald Trump's running mate, but I would like to see her run on her own. I know it would never happen, but I would not mind a Clinton/Winfrey ticket. I would at least like to see her run for the Democratic Party Presidential nomination.
I realize she has not had a political career. I also realize that this is a change in my stance from 2008 in that I was opposed to the idea of Caroline Kennedy (another political novice) being Senator Barak Obama's running mate. However, although I cannot give a good reason for my difference of opinion concerning Caroline Kennedy and Oprah Winfrey, I would still like to hear Oprah Winfrey's opinions on the issues. How does she feel about the problems in this country? What would she do to attempt to solve the problems in this country?

(30,741 posts)the Oprah run for President. I don't think she wants the job. I hope, if someone asks her about Trump's suggestion, that she just laughs and moves on without answering.
