The president often had a weak, raspy voice during his first debate against Trump, in what Democrats had hoped would be a turning point in the race.

    I didn’t say it wasn’t risky. I’m saying what I heard. But, I also don’t think it’s that risky.

    She would be a much better debater and candidate, and it would likely erase much of the voter apathy with the huge 40 and under group. Especially with abortion and womans rights on the table.

    And I’m a huge Bernie supporter, but we’ve seen several times now that the DNC isn’t going to give him a chance. So who else you got cause Bernie’s chance died in 2016

      The thing is, is (Michelle) Obama even interested in politics? I’ll admit I’m quite ignorant of her career in politics other than having been the First Lady.

      I’d vote for her over Biden or Trump any day, though.

      I got nobody else besides her and Sanders. Maybe Schumer? AOC 😂?

        I absolutely love AOC as well, but she’ll be in the Bernie boat. Too “socialist”, and would push many centrist to vote red.

        I don’t think Michelle is really interested, but it was just an exciting thought to me when I was seeing it pop up.

        I don’t know if I’d love it, but Andy Beshear could pull his Kentucky magic, and possibly steal a bunch of Trump voters with the hayseeds.

        It’s all looking like wishful thinking though, regardless
