No Amateurs as Democratic Presidential Candidates, Please!
I'm serious. It's going to be a tough pull to correct all the damage that will have been done by Donald Trump. Starting in January, 2021, we are going to need an accomplished political leader who can pull things together and begin restoring the United States to some semblance of its previous status in the world.

The damage done by one amateur President cannot be fixed by another amateur.

So, no actors. No business CEOs. We need someone who understand both politics and international relationships.

Please.

PLEASE run Oprah !

I don't like the thought of Oprah running for office. She has a lot of face recognition and there are a lot of superficial people in the U.S. who would vote for her just because she's Oprah.

WTH does that mean?

* Wocky doesn't want a President who has had to live under and weave his/her way through government regulations in order to conduct their business and daily life? (I think this underlies Progs' fear and loathing of Trump. He's had to conduct business in the face of bureaucratic insanity.)

* Wocky doesn't want a President who actually understands how our economy works through personal experience?

* Wocky doesn't think (I know, I could end this sentence here) people who do international business understand international relations?

In my opinion (which when paired with a $5 bill will get you a cup of coffee and change at Starchucks) it's politicians who have little or no experience with running a business who have F'ed up this country so badly through their elitist ignorance! Wocky wants more of the same.

Who's he trying to kid? Rockhead would vote for the Hitler/Stalin ticket if they had a (D) behind the name. He's as much as said so in his GOTV pleas over the years.

The Dems already had an amateur in the White House for 8 years, who showed NO learning curve whatsoever, unless it went into negative I.Q. territory!

I don't like the thought of Oprah running for office. She has a lot of face recognition and there are a lot of superficial people in the U.S. who would vote for her just because she's Oprah.

Substitute "Afro-American" for "Oprah" and you have at least a partial explanation for the elections of 2008 and 2012.

Why bother with a professional politician?  Bill Clinton was probably the most polished and at least reasonably accomplished professional politician they have run in 50 years.  Not that I agreed at all with him, but at least he was governor & attorney general.  Kerry & Gore, Carter, Mondale & Dukakis had at least a modicum of a political resume.

Go with the Oprah!  Maybe add another no political experience goofball for continuing humor.

Professional politicians have done so well for everyone. Why would we ever want to elect anyone that hasn't spent their lifetime in politics getting rich on the taxpayer's dime?

The DUmmies still aren't getting it:
The campaign, and ESPECIALLY the election, of President Trump demonstrated how tired the American people had grown with politics as usual and the corruption and incompetence of "Accomplished political leaders" (Aka crooked Dem politicians who'd been screwing the American people over for years if not decades).

Oprah made her money as an entertainer, Trump as a builder / deal maker there is a big difference. Dealing with govt agencies and unions and banks is different then dealing with hollywod.

Trump's public life has been building things and giving people jobs.  Oprah's public life has been giving people free shit from her sponsors.

It's obvious that Oprah is a democrat giving away other people's money.
