For about four months, there's been persistent rumors of Michelle Obama getting into the primary of 2024, and running because of Joe Biden's 'problems'.
Frankly, I see the story as BS.
My four observations?
1. She's never held an elected office...ever. Not even a mayor job (like Mayor-Pete).
2. Speech-wise.....she has probably given forty-odd speeches but there's nothing remarkable.
3. If you did ask her any foreign affairs questions.....I don't think she can much of anything beyond pointing to the location on a map.
4. If she's the 'sole' person for the primary, beyond RFK who never gets mentioned....what's that say about the depth of the party for big-time players? Note, from this past week, Governor Newsom said 'NO' that he's not running.
So I see this as a lame PR thing that some journalists are hyping her for President, when the odds are heavily against her.
But let me add two unusual factors. First, selling her to the black community won't be that easy because they see her as having 'status' (wealth, college). Black guys will even bring up this Obama drug-stuff and gay rumor.....to say she didn't see all of this happening.
Second, she's never really encountered a debate. Donald versus Michelle?
It's a curious BS story, but it just isn't a likely thing.
