She was already working in broadcast, was one credit short so she did the course in 1986 and graduated. It's not like she went to school for 15 years. Geez.

Enough with the entertainment celebrities already. This is making us look ridiculous as a country.

But it would certainly be an improvement over the current state of affairs.

How? So we would just be another Social Engineering, High Tax experiment like Europe? Look at the actual metrics of how we measure Presidents, and not the hyperbole of the Left. We are doing quite well now.

And yet, none of the mentioned things are required for presidency.
If they were many of the presidents we have had would have been disqualified for the job.

I'm not impressed. I'm better educated than her, sorry to say.



She's a celebrity who hosted a trashy reality show for a couple decades, and nothing more.



I'm disgusted with the route this country is on...

Romney seems to be sniffing around political circles again...would take Pence down pretty quick on the GOP side.

Hmm. So I guess whoever has control of the NBC twitter account, 6 + months later, is a right wing whack job :

NBC sees Oprah as ‘our future president’

I have mixed feelings about this. Two years ago I would have said no way would I vote for a celebrity. But in light of the current occupant in the White House I find my thinking has changed. Winfrey would most likely work hard to learn what she needed to learn, and would surround herself with people who were knowledgeable and could teach her and/or help her with what she doesn't know, unlike Trump, who believes he knows everything, but the minute he opens his mouth it's clear he knows nothing.

I could see myself pulling the lever for her.
I feel exactly the same way. If Trump runs again it might take another celebrity with deep pockets to beat him and Oprah would be the perfect anti-Trump because she's clearly every thing he is not plus she's a decade younger. She's also known and highly respected around the world and could mend the fences that Trump is destroying in our international relationships.
