´Superwoman´ Michelle Obama
can be Supreme Court justice -
or PRESIDENT - says Samuel
L. Jackson

Daily Mail (UK), by Staff

Original Article

Posted By:JoniTx, 12/4/2012 12:02:00 AM

Barack Obama may have won another four years as president, but it´s his wife Michelle that may lead the country beyond his second term if Samuel L. Jackson has his way. The Snakes on a Plane star got behind the first lady in a recent interview, saying that Michelle Obama would make a fine president - or a Supreme Court justice ´if she wants.´ Despite little indication that she has political aspirations - not to mention that the next election is four years away - Mrs Obama is getting support for her own White House run.

Drive to have the Mooch run for president will surely begin in 10/15, although she will have been campaigning 12 months earlier. Obama will claim that his policies are close to ending the Depression that began at the start of his 2nd term. He´ll tell the American voter once again that "we won´t go back when we are so very close to achieving unemployment below 12%". Michelle will trounce Hilary in the Dem primaries. CNBC will roar when BLS reports an 11.9% rate in 10/16.
Only thing that would stop Mooch is an executive order that states that BO is not subject to constraints imposed by 22nd Amendment. Chief Justice Susan Rice will lead Supreme Court to 5 to 4 vote granting Obama the exemption to run for 2 more terms. To console Mooch, BO will issue executive order for a First Lady´s salary equal to that of a president.

In this day and age, anything is possible. We live in an era where a simple statement is considered to be evidence.

For example, if I said Michelle Obama would make a good President, the masses would take that to mean that there exists evidence that she would make a good President. There is almost a total lack of questioning and analysing beyond the statement. It´s a form of cultism.

At the rate things are going, you´ll have Michelle as President, Malia as Secretary of State, and Beyonce as education czar.

Don´t think this isn´t being floated for a reason. Michelle wold like nothing better than to follow her husband. Her qualifications are being 1) black, 2) female, and 3)married to Obama. And I would assume those facts alone will be enough for every Democrat voter to pull the lever for her come 2016. You should assume that too.

All Michelle Obama has to do is read Barack Obama´s speeches to the Democrat base and she will win the Democrat nomination for President over the likes of Hillary Clinton.

If the Democrats were to nominate Hillary over Michelle, much of the black vote that the Democrats absolutely need to win national elections would stay home on election day and the Democrats would loose the national election. The politicians who run the Democrat Party know that, are not about to loose the election, and would nominate Michelle over Hillary in a second.

That why if Michele runs, Hillary will not run against her, and the country will end up with the Obama´s in the White House for another eight years. They are already putting out feelers talking about Hillary becoming Mayor of New York city rather then running for President in 2016.

Rep. Steve King, a Republican from Iowa and the House´s leading immigration hawk, complained Thursday about young immigrants who had shown up to protest his bill that would defund President Barack Obama´s deferred action program. King wrote on Twitter that "20 brazen self professed illegal aliens have invaded my DC office. Obama´s lawless order gives them de facto immunity from U.S. law." The congressman sponsored a measure to defund Obama´s 2012 executive action that gave young unauthorized immigrants relief from deportation and a work permit if they attend or graduate high school and have no criminal record.

For all her shortcomings and all her talent, one thing is certain: Sarah Palin can draw attention. The love and hate for Palin—depending on which camp you’re in—gives her a gift few possess: The ability to generate a reaction (good or bad), to make people pay attention. Despite her rising unfavorable ratings (58% unfavorable in the latest CNN/ORC poll…a 37-point rise since her 2008 RNC speech), she’s authored two best-sellers, and was named to Time’s “100 Most Influential People,” albeit in 2010.

First-round play, interrupted by two separate rain delays, was suspended due to darkness, with Luke Donald leading at 4 under through 13 holes.
