Isn't it about time for an Iranian woman president ?
2015-09-28
[Hot Air] Hillary Clinton's campaign is in such bad shape that some Democrats are begging for Joe Biden to enter the race. But maybe Biden isn't the savior the Democratic Party needs right now. Maybe there's a better option, a consensus candidate that Democrats could unite behind. That candidate is Valerie Jarrett, senior White House aide and de facto President of the United States. The Cheney to Obama's Bush, if you will.
Article assumes she's not already a shadow POTUS.
Jarrett is such a perfect amalgamation of Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, and Barack Obama, it's somewhat baffling that Democrats have made no effort to draft her for 2016. Consider her credentials:

- African-American
- Iranian-born
- Woman (single)
- Would make history
- Stanford University grad
- Ties to Obama regime, would continue the Obama-Jarrett legacy
- Extraordinarily young (58) compared to Hillary (67), Biden (72), and Sanders (74)
- Is a real person, has more personality than Hillary, but not in a creepy way like Biden
- Brains behind the Obama administration's foreign policy
- Ready for primetime television
- Sufficiently self-important to be president (demanded full-time secret service detail)
- No email scandal (that we know of)
- Way more liberal than Hillary
- Didn't quit her job early like Hillary
- Almost as rich as Hillary

Jarrett has all of Hillary's positive attributes (female gender, experience) and everything that Biden lacks (female gender, historic nature of candidacy). She is the perfect alternative, and could help inject some enthusiasm into an otherwise pathetic Democratic field.

No longer co-puppet master with John Brennan, imagine the free time she'd have to devote to the job !

Marian Robinson's West Wing bedroom and study could be turned into a prayer room and mini-mosque, or Muslim Brotherhood field office.

#4  This would explain all the media hysteria about Carlson stating that a Muslim (or more precisely one who follows Sharia law) should not be a president.

#3  Now if she were to be elected in Iran as President - that'd be historic!

#2  Who says this is not part of Champ's plan? Which is to say, ValJar's plan.
