(23,156 posts)37. She will never actually run for any elected office.
If she even begins to think about it, she will quickly come up against the reality of running for office, which is absolutely nothing like the jobs in academia she held before she moved into government. She absolutely does not have any kind of experience or background that would make her consider for thirty seconds running for president.
And if I'm wrong, any campaign of hers would end with remarkable swiftness. Oh, I can see some Republicans getting all starry-eyed over having a black female Republican President, but the racism and sexism of that party isn't going to come to a screeching halt in the next four years.
