Just speculation at this point but.....

Can't we bring up some candidate with law credentials and political savvy instead of a TV celebrity? "Better than Trump" is not what I want for my country. Oprah is not the answer. 
I am sure she's a good person. But the President!?

Ok, let the GOP keep the power. 

This is the "all or nothing" nonsense that BOTH Bernie and Hillary camps had which cost us the election.


I DO think Oprah is qualified, and I don't give one fuck about her celebrity. She doesn't use small words, she can write her own speeches, she started out a no name, she built an empire FROM NOTHING.  

It is bullshit to compare Oprah to 45 or the Kardashians. 45 was handed his wealth. Kim is the daughter of a billionaire lawyer. SHE was handed her wealth. OPRAH was not handed shit, and she is not stupid.

Pick your battles. But either way, this bullshit "all or nothing crap" is not going to help us win.

The Obamas would back her, not because she is famous. The Obamas would ALSO back Hillary or Bernie or Warren. Now, unless you are willing to call the Obamas stupid or mere "celebrities" too, stop making this about her fame. OPRAH started out a local journalist back in the 70s when it was far more difficult for a woman, much less a black woman, to movie up. 

If you want to attack a billionaire celebrity, Rupert Murrdoc started Fox News and that network has caused a shitload of damage to society. Oprah BACKED Obama in both his bids and I don't think she likes Fucks News anymore than you or I do.

I do not believe I am espousing an "all or nothing" attitude. She is admirable and I am sure she's a good person. But I don't want her as my president. I feel there are far better candidates with law backgrounds who would be far more qualified. I think wealth and business acumen are not the necessary qualifications for president. I am not attacking anyone or comparing anyone to the Kardashians.
