The left likes Oprah, but is she the one to be the next president?

Oprah Winfrey as president? Some are excited at the prospect of someone who could deny Trump a second term, but Democrats should take stock of who they back to lead the party.

Opinions from the left:

1. Oprah, don't do it

From The New York Times: Let’s take a step back here. The reality is, we don’t need another celeb.

2. Oprah Winfrey for president in 2020 is a distraction the Democrats don’t need

From ABC: An Oprah presidency would not be good for Democrats who must find a seasoned leader.

3. Oprah for president? No thanks

From NOLA: Oprah, gain some experience in governing before you take that leap.
