Are you KIDDING? Oprah is my favorite superhero!

Daywalker · 04-13-2011, 04:49 PM

One vote for the Donald!

Guy · 04-13-2011, 05:25 PM

I voted neither, minus the stomping

cuddlyfemme · 04-14-2011, 08:22 AM

Oprah all the way!!!!

DamselFly · 04-14-2011, 12:05 PM

i vote for neither, though with those minus the stomping *smile*. neither has any political experience, which in some MIGHT be a good thing, but both are media personas, so that we really have not much info as to whom they really are. while trump has lost any credibility he might have had when he began this ridiculous birther idiocy, oprah does not strike me as the political choice, either. while she seems to have much more compassion than trump, that doesn't translate into the ability to run a country. i say let's give a woman who HAS political expertise a chance: Hilary Clinton. those she is a democrat, and i do not trust those of either party, she has shown dedication, persistence, and certainly has political expertise! if not hilary, then i say, lets get a progressive into office. someone who does have knowledge of how to run things politically but is affiliated w/neither party-or the tea party people. i definitely am going to canada (if they'll allow me in), if palin runs and -totally ick- wins. my two cents.

Couldn't we have at least one queer to vote for in your poll?

Oh, well some Rumors have Oprah staring in her OwN Queer as Folk.

That's hypothetical of course...or is it?

Apocalipstic · 04-14-2011, 02:46 PM

Of the choices, I voted for Oprah.

I mean why bring up the Obama birth controversy any more...Jesus.

Sachita · 04-14-2011, 02:54 PM

Oprah- then she tells Obama "This is how I told you to do it. Now watch and learn."

Glenn · 04-14-2011, 03:10 PM

I'd rather tha donald take a bullet instead of Lady O.

The_Lady_Snow · 04-14-2011, 03:30 PM

Gayle could be our "First Lady"

MsTinkerbelly · 04-14-2011, 06:26 PM

I saw somewhere today that he will be announcing his run for the white house on the apprentice. I wish I could remember where I read it... Probably old news?

NJFemmie · 04-15-2011, 06:23 AM

I vote for the nuns going after Goldman Sachs.

Never mess with a pissed off nun.

Kobi · 04-22-2011, 10:59 AM

I thought this was a cute hypothetical thing. And then I saw The Donald
giving interviews on running for office.

A duck might be an interesting contrast to the current crop of Washingtonian jackasses.
But seriously, when did we become a people with a barnyard government?

Medusa · 04-22-2011, 11:10 AM

Barring lack of political experience on both of their parts, Oprah would get my vote hands down.

She is compassionate, a smart as hell business woman, Pro-LGBT rights, and obviously knows how to handle her finances to the point that she is one of the world's richest women.

I wouldn't vote for Donald Trump to be a fucking JANITOR in the white house. (and this is certainly no swipe on people who clean for a living, just illustrating someone who is still in the actual white house but who is far removed from the politics there)

Soft*Silver · 04-22-2011, 11:12 AM

Is Oprah really going to run for president? Did she quit her show so she could seriously make a run for it, if not this term, then next? Did she get a flavor for it by helping get Obama elected? I had been thinking this to myself over the past year and then this thread crops up. hmmmmm. I dont get the newspaper and I dont watch the news. Was there something said that made this a current topic?

Toughy · 04-22-2011, 12:43 PM

softness: in answer to your question....no not that I know of.

Being the President is not the same as being a CEO of a for profit company or any kind of business person. It's a whole different set of skills and knowledge base.

AtLast · 04-22-2011, 01:09 PM

I'm just wondering when the 3-ring circus is going to stop and the GOP has some competent candidates. With the economy so fragile, gas prices rising, and the need for a sane overhaul of the tax code, I want Obama to be able to build a winning strategy. I honestly believe his re-election is tied to the economy and job creation. The gas price situation is something that hits hard on people- an everyday slap in the face that is a game changer with personal budgeting.

Neither Trump or Oprah have the skills to be president. But, Oprah is someone I respect deeply and feel she is very smart. Trump just loves to see Trump on the tube.

I think the GOP is worried about putting forth a candidate against Obama. Even Carl Rove has been saying "get serious" and leave the Tea Party zealots behind. I don't like Rove, but he is a savvy political strategist. Even Bachman is backing away from the birther garbage.

I really wish the serious issues would be discussed and ideas formulated that get things like the construction and housing industries back on their feet and jobs are created. We also can bring some of manufacturing back (some is lost forever).

Its fun to play with the craziness of some of these "candidates," but this is such a serious time for our economy and middle and working class people.

Kind of interesting to look at the occupations of folks before they became President. 26 of the 44 were lawyers. Some were businessmen - Harding was a respected newspaper publisher, Washington was a farmer/plantation owner, Truman was a farmer/retailer, Hoover was a mining engineer/businessman, the elder Bush was in oil, GW actually has an MBA and had run many companies into the ground before turning his talent on the country, a few including LBJ were schoolteachers.
