It's prediction time


Steve Forbes on what he thinks Biden will do if Michelle Obama enters the presidential contest.

Her office have said that she has ruled herself out, and will not be running.

Which is a shame. Biden's administration showed that an unknown group of people could run the country (after a fashion) with a senile husk as a figurehead. Why not have Michelle as a well-known and popular celebrity in the symbolic position? Why not have a cartoon figure like Homer Simpson, Snoopy, or Spiderman?

In the UK, we have a low-grade AI system with an unsuccessful barrister as its front-man. Labour ought to take the next step and replace him with Stephen Fry, Attenborough, or Lineker.

Sam - maybe Michelle is too wealthy to bother, but I think Snoopy dwells too much on the mysteries of life to be suitable. Homer Simpson could give it a go, but Lisa might write his speeches, which could be a problem.

Attenborough could be a sound choice for the UK because lots of people can do his voice so he could do both sides of any debate.

One attraction of "Big Mike" Obama running would be the fun of demanding to see her long form birth certificate. Although, to be fair, they've had four years in which to produce a decent forgery.

I think she'd be daft to run. What if some looney thinks that if an assassination attempt is good for the gander it's good for the goose?

Oh yes, the certificates!

Even Photoshop can't hide the issues, which made the whole shebang a farce, but 6/5 odds here says it'll be Michelle!

Barry back for his fourth term!

dearieme - another attraction of Michelle Obama running would be a few more voters realising that their vote is just part of the show, not to be taken seriously. Yes she would be daft to run though, too many armed loons out there.

Scrobs - I hope not, but another clown show must be on the cards.

If Michelle (Mike) Obama does run for VP, there will have to be at least one medical examination to confirm the applicant is fit enough to hold that office. Perhaps that will give someone the opportunity to confirm M's sex, one way or the other?
Just a thought.

Homer's father would be a shoo-in.

Penseivat - it would have to be someone with considerable courage though. The wrong answer would mean emigration at least.

Doonhamer - especially as Homer is smarter than Hunter.
