A Hillary and Michelle Ticket for 2016?

While Michelle Obama works to ban the word “bossy” from the lexicon, Reuters may have come up with two words bound to send millions into deep despair: “Senator Michelle”.

“Speculation about a possible political future for Michelle Obama has naturally centered on the White House. But that’s the wrong place — at least for now. (Reuters, June 5, 2014)

“Illinois has a Republican senator, Mark Kirk, and he is up for reelection in 2016. He’ll be formidable, particularly given his brave recovery from a stroke. But Illinois is a heavily Democratic state, and the race could be close.”

Reuters knows full well that for the Democrats, electioneering is a well-perfected game called The Survival of the Fittest.  With divorce papers magically disclosed when Barack Obama contested a senate seat against Jack Ryan in 2004, and with media smears that stick for a lifetime, gazelles in the herd are picked off, one at a time, by marauding lions,  Kirk, a war vet, who suffered a stroke in January of 2012, was hospitalized and returned to work one year later,  is the latest Democrat targeted gazelle.

“No Illinois Democratic candidate would bring the star power and nationwide fundraising capacity that Obama would,”  Reuters trumpets.

“She has proven herself a superb speaker on behalf of her pet projects and is now a veteran campaigner for her husband. She’s also remained highly popular — even as the president’s ratings have plummeted.



“She could represent the Democrats’ best chance to pick up a desperately needed — and winnable — seat. A December 2012 Public Policy Polling survey put her ahead of Kirk, 51 percent to 40 percent. Democratic leaders’ pressure on her to run  might get intense

“But the most acute pressure could come from within. Anyone who has listened to her speeches, particularly on the campaign trail, understands that she is a dedicated liberal, who believes unreservedly in the power of government to transform lives.

“Obama views the battle between Republicans and Democrats as a struggle for the soul of the nation.

“Who are we?” she repeatedly asked while campaigning in 2012. She said the election result would affect the country “for decades.”

“Who we are, in Obama’s view, is a nation in which people help each other through the agency of the government. “Will we honor that fundamental belief,” she asked, “that we’re all better off when we work together?”

“Can someone who views politics as an historic contest of ideas resist a unique chance to seize an available Senate seat?”

And as Reuters points out Michelle Obama’s answering “I probably won’t run” ” when asked whether she would take a run at the 2016 presidency is far more maybe than a definite no.

“When she was asked in 2012 whether she would run for president, she replied, “Absolutely not!”

“But then she added: “One of the things you learn about yourself as you get older are what are your strengths and what are your interests. And for me, it’s the other stuff that is not being president. So I probably won’t run.

“Probably?”

Is Michelle Obama’s political trajectory one that aims to get her in the White House as president via Hillary Clinton?

Will the 2016 election be one with a Hillary Clinton-Michelle Obama ticket?

Shudder time!

For those comforting themselves with the thought that senatorship is too far back in the power line for overbearing Michelle, getting elected as New York Junior Senator was the trajectory of how Hillary could make a run for U.S. president.

Nothing but death and taxes are guaranteed in life on earth.  But with Hillary and Michelle as president and vice president, it is guaranteed that Barack Hussein Obama will remain in the White House beyond 2016 for the ongoing Fundamental Transformation of America.
