Afraid we're going to have to prevail on the Obamas again

But we absolutely NEED Michelle Obama to run! She would crush Spanky. I know you don't wanna go back there, especially for 8 more years, Michelle - but your Country needs you, badly. You are public servants and good and moral people, and you need to answer the call. While the other candidates will do well in the election, YOU would win by such a large margin that the needle of the Electoral College cant be threaded again.

I just don't see another way, Michelle. Your country needs you and democracy needs you.

Besides - wouldn't it be FUN to beat a racist misogynistic asshole like Spanky?!?!?! C'mon, you can imagine how much fun that would be.

YOU are the magic bullet, Michelle Obama. Please raise your hand and step to the front of the class.

And you would have a mighty fine Cabinet if you just hire most of the current candidates (Delaney & Gabbard, go home); they are an quality bunch.

Please Michelle, please ! Please? Help.

Please leave them alone. They've already given us more than we deserve. Time for someone else to step up.

If Michelle were to run, the current field would drop out and back her. The Senate will go back to the Democrats and the House will be even more Democrats. Trump will not be able to say the election was rigged.

Does she know that? In a country of over 300 million the one person who does not need to raise her hand ever again is Michelle Obama. She, and her family, served this country well. and have gotten excoriated from all sides. Enough. Let someone else get the death threats.

"Just between us, and the readers of this magazine - there's zero chance," Obama said in an interview with The National, Amtrak's travel and culture magazine, that was published Friday.

"There are so many ways to improve this country and build a better world, and I keep doing plenty of them, from working with young people to helping families lead healthier lives. But sitting behind the desk in the Oval Office will never be one of them. It's just not for me."

her candidacy would mobilize the diehard 30% and the other percentage who voted for trump simply out of hate for Hillary...and the whites are still the majority here in this country so no matter how intelligent and qualified she is for office, they won't vote for her simply because they won't vote for a woman and a black woman at that...and yes, I am a brown person whose grown up in this racist America....
