I love Oprah. I do. Her rousing, triumphant, moving speech at the Golden Globes left me with tear-stained cheeks and feeling absolutely inspired. There's no doubt that those words surpass anything we have ever heard or will ever hear from our sitting president. Oprah Winfrey is an incredible woman, a strong orator, and a complete and utter success.

But she CANNOT be our next president.

It's true: the White House is lacking in many aspects of what we want to see in our leader. Passion, optimism, focus, honesty, integrity, humility. (Believe me, I know that the list goes on). But what else are we lacking?

Experience.

Oprah fits all the categories except the one that seems to truly matter. The Democratic Party simply cannot afford to stoop so low as to get behind someone who is as inexperienced as the person it spends all its time campaigning against.

I am not defending Donald Trump. But as we complain about our current administration, shouldn't we be looking to restore what the White House once was? A place for serious, hardworking, intelligent politicians, not celebrities.

Last week in The New York Times, Thomas Chatterton Williams said: "If liberals no longer pride themselves on being the adults in the room...our national descent into chaos will be complete.

If the first year of the Trump administration has made anything clear, it’s that experience, knowledge, education and political wisdom matter tremendously. ..The presidency is not a reality show, or for that matter, a talk show."

Yes, in all technicality, she could run. We already elected a TV show host once, so how about we try it again but with someone who possesses more than two brain cells and doesn't look like a burnt cheeto? Logically, it makes sense.

However, the reality of it all is that Oprah Winfrey just gave an incredible speech. She called out the injustices in our country and society and then proceeded to instill hope into the hearts of every American watching.

She did what we wished our elected leader would do. But that doesn't make her eligible to be our next president; it only solidifies the notion that our current president isn't doing his job very well.
