Democrat Operatives Launch ‘Committee to Draft Michelle Obama’ for VP
[BREITBART] A newly-launched committee called "Draft Michelle Obama" is pushing for Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden
...Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids....
, the apparent Democrat presidential nominee, to select the former first lady as his running mate.

"Joe Biden has said he would choose Michelle Obama as his running mate ’in a heartbeat.’ The aim of this campaign is to build on the substantial grassroots support for a potential Michelle Obama candidacy and help garner media attention for a vice-presidential nominee who has the power to beat Donald Trump
...Oh, noze! Not him!...
," the group said in a statement released Monday.

The statement adds: "The Committee to Draft Michelle Obama firmly believes that Ms. Obama will not only benefit the Democratic ticket this November but also help lead this country to be more just and caring. However strongly we support Ms. Obama as Vice President Biden’s running mate, we will transfer our resolve to whoever joins the ticket to defeat the most dangerous incumbent in the history of our nation."

The group, which filed with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) in late April, is supported by Democratic fundraisers Nadine Hack and Mack Wilbourn, spokesperson Drew Zuckerman told The Hill.

Biden has said he would undoubtedly pick Obama to be his running mate, affirming in an April interview that he would "take her in a heartbeat."

"She’s brilliant. She knows the way around. She is a really fine woman. The Obamas are great friends," the former vice president told CBS Pittsburgh.

#3 Play 'second fiddle' to an old white micro-predator, who doesn't have a snowballs chance of hell of becoming president? Possible I suppose, but unlikely.

#8 from the article, the Democratic fundraisers are named Nadine Hack and Mack Wilbourn

"Hack 'n' Mack." And Big Mike.
That's nice: low comedy, like Hekyll and Jekyll, or Frick und Frack.

#12 Nadine Hack and Mack Wilbourn

Must be white folk; last I heard the draft was a pantomime of slave purchasing.

#15 Why would she subject herself to that kind of public humiliation?

#16 Pretty sure that while the Wookie would love the job, she lacks the work ethic and ability to lose the Imperial personality that lurks just under the surface of every public appearance. Also, not sure Champ can withstand the visibility of his post presidential personal lifestyle.

#17 She’d win.

#18 Not likely. Big Mike's a dimwit and a lightweight who's never faced any real scrutiny.
