Q-and-A

 1.  The odds of Michelle Obama running in the 2024 Democratic Primary?

Name-recognition-wise?  She goes to the top of the line and probably gets one full-step ahead of Governor Newsom.  

Competency for the job?  Practically zero.  You'd be talking about a 3 x 5 inch index card for the past thirty years of her life.  But she was the wife of Barak Obama.

Selling this to black voters?  Maybe in 2008, this gimmick would have worked well...but I think 50-percent of blacks would just start laughing.

2.  This timeline for the FBI searching President Biden's records at the university....going to early-November?

Well....if you look at things, there must have been something to occur in mid-October to trigger interest, but no one seems to openly chat about that.

3.  What really happens when automation really does finally hit McDonalds?

A fully automated McDonalds (probably by 2030) will have no more than 3 on-shift employees....mostly to load equipment, and reset problems.  

The burger-flipper guys are going to be released, and find no one much needs them around.  A bunch of politicians will be all bothered by this mess, and try to find work for the burger-flippers.    

4.  My general prediction on the Tyre Nichols - Memphis business?

I'll predict shortly that one of the cops knew Nichols in some way, and this traffic stop was a pay-back situation that got out of control.  I'll also predict that the chief of police for the city....has to go (probably by mid-March), and she ends up either in Baltimore or Detroit.
