Michelle would have been such a better candidate

How much can you find in the last couple of years? I find nothing. And yet you all are obsessed with the idea. So peculiar.


Michelle Obama is the ultimate black lady who every suburban white lady wishes she had as part of her friend group. The spot formerly filled by Oprah until she became a senior citizen. Thus giving her enormous public support from a large chunk of the population who in the past didn't usually get excited about politics and who populate this website.

So, you have no one. Okay, then.

I find her very resentful of the country, of Princeton, of Barack, of politics.

She seems like a great friend to have and she’d probably remember every birthday and buy your kids thoughtful and nice gifts but she does seem like a constant complainer.

Why complain about wealthy people now when she’s wealthy? Why complain about generational wealth when Malia and Sasha won’t have to work or get rejected from any job any day of their life due to their last name? NBC has a day time gig with their name on it just like for Jenna Bush


+1. She seems to hate this country. Which is incredibly ironic coming from an empty-nester that owns four mansions (DC, MV, Hawaii, and Chicago). It’s really strange.

She certainly sounds like she hates America. Her long time favorite pastor, Jeremiah Wright was never shy about expressing his hatred of America. His sermons were so vile, they seem to be buried. Imagine that. Initially they were all over YouTube.

You can only hide from unscripted discussions for so long.

When has Kamala debated anyone? All she did was tell us about her yellow school bus story. Poor Joe.

And she can take the reins in 2033. And then Sasha and Malia in succession after that.

She’s already said publicly she told Sasha and Malia not to enter politics.

Again, I don’t know why she would discourage her kids from something that she did herself. She acts like politics was torture for her. She got an early retirement at age 40 thanks to politics. She got an entire style overhaul thanks to politics. She moved out of Chicago to Beverly Hills thanks to politics. She and her husband made history as the first black family in the WH thanks to politics. What did the country or politics ever do wrong to her?

Most former presidents have good incomes - why wouldn't they?



The Obamas and Clintons and most wealthy people with brains run their money through charitable foundations to limit their tax liability. I would bet $1 million that I pay more in federal tax than the Obamas.

Sounds like you want to have them take the "reigns" by creating a monarchy.

Exactly. They write the tax laws to benefit themselves, not us.
