The idea for the car giveaway came from Oprah’s friend Gayle King, who sat next to someone from Pontiac on a flight and struck up a conversation. The show had originally asked Pontiac for 25 cars to giveaway, but kept asking the automaker for more until the total number reached 276. The value of the cars to Pontiac was about $7.7 million.

Or celebrity businessman billionaire Mark Cuban.

This is just rich.

Semi-serious question. Could Oprah win an election to be president? Women love her, I would think she would have the minority vote and she seems quite articulate. Aside from a couple of blunders on her tv show, would anyone really have enough dirt on her to make her go away?

Personally, I would be torn on voting for her (although I am from Canuckistan so it doesn't matter anyway). People seem to really love her though.

I think she should run. I mean, what the hell? Look at the mamzers we've had since 2000. She couldn't be any worse and may even be better. And at least we know we'll all get free stuff from her. ;-)

As people said, would her skills translate over?

Can you see Oprah standing up to Putin? Iran? NK? Being Commander in Chief ordering slowguy and our military around?

I didn't read the whole thread, but why is this even an option?

Please tell me that their are more qualified applicants for the job of POTUS than OW.

Or is this just one of those threads joking about it, then hahahaha.

Unrelated, but does anyone have any insight into the NZ immigration process?

Asking for a friend.

That's what I also mentioned in my first reply, just without the specific Putin, etc. instances.

Honestly, any worse than Trump? Let's face it, Russia, Iran, NK are outliers on the global front when it comes to diplomacy. I don't see any of those examples listening to DJT or being swayed by him. Certainly Oprah wouldn't hold less credibility with those, but she would hold a far greater amount of credibility with more mainstream diplomatic partners and be better equipped to work with them than DJT will be, a net benefit.

As far as the military is concerned -- is Trump any more respectable than Oprah when he's rage tweeting about bringing us to the brink of nuclear war? Is that something that should make our troops want to stand in line behind him? He wasn't any more qualified to be Commander in Chief than Oprah would be, although I'd imagine her behavior and ability to take sound advice to be far greater than Trump's.

Ok, her leanings might not be obviously right-of-center, but frankly, I've not seen much difference between GOP actions and Dem actions in decades. They talk a little different, but once they're in office they all seem to push pretty much the same policies.

A quick review of her early life, and a comparison to that of Trump, would change your view on that. I'm guessing Oprah pretty well understands the reality of life.
