I think we should draft Michelle Obama to run

[Quixote1818]

I was just talking to my sister and we were talking about the candidates and how we like a lot of them fine but are not blown away and we started discussing who we wish would run and we both brought up Michelle Obama at the same time. She has the type of smarts, charisma and magic I look for! If she jumped in she would be my first pick easily.

1. pretty much agreed. would love to see her debating that awful human being nt

[pangaia]

2. I wouldn't wish that on her or her family.

I think she has paid her dues.


Of course if it was something she truly WANTED to do (which as far as I know it is not). I would seriously consider supporting her.

3. What if she doesn't want to? She's made it quite clear that she isn't interested

in running for office at all.

4. She doesn't go for the rat race. nt

5. Only if she wants to.

I would love it.

7. Michelle..

8. I would love to have her as a personal favorite and a damn smart candidate. However, I feel

uncomfortable with the optics of a dynastic candidacy.

Hillary had some distance from her days as First Lady including a senate seat and Sec. of State.

I don't feel Michelle is un-qualified for the task but it might be a better thing that she runs after 2020.

9. Hands down, Michelle would have the best chance to defeat the pee-Resident.

Bernie & Elizabeth 2020!!!
Welcome to the revolution!!!

10. If you read her book

You will know that she has no interest in running for office. It's a wonderful book. I recommend it highly.

On edit. How about a SCOTUS justice?

[Sucha NastyWoman]

15. I like that idea a lot!

[JI7]

11. she does not want to run and we have many good candidates running

let the Obamas get the peaceful after presidency they should have gotten with Hillary as president .

[Drunken Irishman]

12. She won't do it but if Michelle ran, she'd instantly become the front-runner.

[DesertRat]

13. We all love her, but she doesn't want to run

If you read her book she makes it clear that she doesn't like politics and will never choose to run.

[Doreen]

14. She would have my vote.

[MrsMatt]

16. She has indicated that she has no desire to run

Why the hell can't people just respect her wishes?

It irritates me beyond belief - we have a plethora of qualified candidates. Why try to enlist an unwilling participant?

[bearsfootball516]

17. She has said multiple times that she is not running and has absolutely no interest.

End of story.

[WeekiWater]

18. No thank you.

I can’t imagine drafting anyone considering our current field. I don’t even get the thought process that we need someone right now.

[Demsrule86]

19. Stop. She isn't running. Our candidates will be fine. You want progressive

Change? Vote for the Democratic nominee always.what sort of message does this post send? Not a good one.

[artislife]

20. She doesn't want it

And I don't blame her. She endured so much hate during their 8 years. She deserves to ride high and in control of her own destiny. Yes, she is a great human being and I am loving how much love she is receiving now.
