Michelle Obama says she doesn’t want the job and never wanted the job but she notes that she’s worried about Trump and doesn’t actually say that she’d refuse the nomination.

She has plenty of name recognition while being untainted by controversy.

Yes. She’s a black woman and that will turn off some (many) people. I’d posit that those people are all going to vote for Trump anyway.

She also has an impressive resume that shows high levels of competence. She’s young and fit (she can definitely do more pushups than Trump).

She does all that while raising two kids who are both successful while still maintaining a loving and healthy parent-child relationship.

The more I think about it, the more I hope someone can talk her into it.

Let’s go, MO!

    Oh so they have dropped Cornel West and now this is the new thing for unrealistic alternatives to Biden

    Dude, fuckin Jon Stewart

    If you’re gonna float some weird outsider person as the alternative to Biden, float the guy who would clean up the fuckin election left handed and might well not do too bad a job running the country afterward, either

      According to the articles, this choice is based on polling by Reuters/Ipsos that shows that she has the best chance of beating Trump.

        Sure, keep pretending this is a purely objective and data driven choice you reached purely for reasons of trying to help the Democrats. You can point to whatever polls you want to to help in that endeavor. I will not stop you.
