In reply to the discussion: Is Chris Christie going to run for President as a Democrat in 2016? [View all]graham4anything
(11,464 posts)yes, Michelle Obama.
Did you think the same thing about FDR, about Al Gore, about John Quincy Adams, about any of the 3 Kennedy's?
Would you have wanted Jerry Brown not to give his entire life to public service because his daddy was in politiics?
Or do you just mean any Clinton or Obama or Bush.
Oh, I get it.
Golda Meir actually one could say had it much harder in her little neck of the woods.
Your wanting of someone never vetted, never having yet acheived anything to be President, and you are worried about that???
BTW, if you don't want Michelle Obama, how about Michelle Pfeiffer.
Can't recall any relative of hers running.
or maybe Michelle Dockery.
She handles the Abbey pretty well.
Or Michelle Trachtenberg. She would definitely not be to old.
Or Michelle Williams. She has had a tough life and knows what she would need to do in tough situations like those that life handed her. And she would qualify under your harsh age standard.
after Michelle Obama, any one of the others would be as realistic a chance as say
Alan Grayson, Bernie Sanders, Al Franken or Mark O'Malley ever being elected President.
