WI:President Winfrey

Suppose rather than pursuing a TV career, Oprah Winfrey instead enters politics and is eventually elected POTUS sometime around 2008.

How will she handle things like the War in Afghanistan, the recession and other current issues. Overall, what will her presidency be like?

I beleive that Oprah's best chance would have been to enter politics some tiem after she had achieved super stardom.

I can imagine it would be hard to defeat her either for governship of Illinois or for a Senate sest(she is Chicago based I think)
 
I'd say she is elected as a Senator from Illinois in 1998 and re-elected in 2004, in this case Obama likely becomes either a Congressman or Governor of Illinois in 2006
 
Looking at her fan base if she runs after she achieves her celebrity status Oprah has an near fanatical level of supporters so her getting votes is not the problem. I am assuming that she would be a Democrat however I am not entirely sure.

Oprah's state of the Union:

"Everyone look under your seats! You get tax cuts, you get tax cuts and you get tax gets!"
