    I like your populist attitude, but Oprah would be another Obama so no. She would be just as divisive as Obama was.

    Her or Mark Cuban. Actual billionaires who worked from the bottom up, take your pick.

    To assume Oprah would be another Obama by her skin color is a bit shallow. Ironically, Oprah started making the case for Obama in 2004, up to his victory in 2008. But unlike Hillary, Oprah has that charismatic touch to connect with people that sustained her empire for so long. So connecting with voters would not be a problem. Then the people making the case Trump knows better because he is a businessman would also be invalidated, because Oprah is also from the world of business. Thus why she is a formidable opponent.

    so why no indictments or charges after 11 months of investigation now?

    yet on the other hand with Uranium 1, Bills getting money from Russian speeches and now these new revelations the dimocratic party was not only in the russians pockets and dirtier than a pig in a cesspool

    this whole charade is blowing up in the dims faces and I for one am laughing my butt off. Of course for the K street cubicle move on and think progress monkeys here this is just dollars in their pockets for lying their asses off and posting fake news

    Yeah but what happened to Bernie? The DNC sabotaged him so he wouldn't get the nomination. Why wouldn't they do the same thing to Gabbard?

    I hope not, she's an adoring fan of George Bush, thinks he has a great sense of humor. However , I didn't find the war in Iraq all that funny.

    The war , any war, was not funny to G. W. Bush. I admire Michelle for avoiding being a bigot about President Bush.

    Lets guess her age then. I would say she is somewhere around 156 or in that vicinity. She is filthy rich. She is ultra rich. Shocked Democrats want one of the rich to run for president.

    In her vein, the Democrats have another woman star. (name will follow, not Tulsi though)

    This is the woman I was speaking of.

    The Arnold was not a real Republican.
    He just occupied the office of governor and would have won on either party's ticket.
    Remember the Hydrogen Highway? Hardly Republican thinking.
    Unless he knew the Hydrogen Highway profiteers. ;)

    What's with the unamerican spelling of "color". No "u" required!

    What quota. Maybe just a loss of popular tolerance for Black racist presidents.

    Obama was half White. Should he count as 0.5?

    Oprah stated in an interview when she was a little girl, she would watch her grandmother hang clothes up to dry, and say to her, "See what I'm doing? This is what you will be doing one day." Something along those lines.

    Let me know when you're ready to take the conversation seriously.

    Don't think she has the proper equipment to be ""felated".

    Although perhaps you are a more cunning linguist than that.

    Yes, well she's a liberal New Yorker, which, I suppose, might be attractive to Democratic Establishment type strategists, but, if I were a Democrat, I would not get terribly excited about her.

    It seems Tulsi is far easier to deal with.

    She is a self-described progressive, so there are probably a lot of issues I would not agree with her on. But I'm just saying that the good things about her would make her a formidable opponent for Trump or any Republican.

    We ran a black the last time. Say, what happened to Democrats? Did they run out of theirs?
