"I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy," Biden said. "I mean, that's a storybook, man."

I guess the same goes for Oprah, except she isn't a guy.
She has the same qualifications as Obama.

You know---The ones the liberals say Trump doesn't have?

It would be equally true to say she has the same qualifications as trump. She took a little bit of money and some skill and turned it into billions of dollars.

Now, I have no reason to believe or think she would make a good president. I do not now nor have I ever imagined her to have the best interests of the United States at heart. But, from a "qualifications" point of view, she has as much as Trump did.

I don't think Oprah would really want the job once she dips her toe in it. She'd be sorely mistaken if she thought she'd ride in on a wave of loving fans and cheering crowds.
And that's what she has now - adoring fans, viewers, Hollywood and so on. They love her.

Politics is a boxing match that never ever ends, and it's bloody and dirty. Unfair. CRUEL. Trump lived that. Actually, he seems to enjoy it a bit too much.
While I don't think Oprah is too delicate, I could easily see her starting a campaign and just leaving, saying something like she can accomplish more by not running, etc.

(Admittedly, they said similar about Trump, but only because they thought he was a money grubbing capitalist, and would gain little from the experience).
