OPRAH THE PRESIDENT
Speculation is growing in the United States that Oprah Winfrey is considering running for President. The clamour for her to run in 2020 has intensified following her speech at Sunday nights Golden Globe awards.
Was this the moment America's favourite talk show host made a pitch to become her country's next president?
Parts of Oprah Winfrey's address at the Golden Globes certainly sounded like a campaign speech. The reaction was immediate - thousands of people taking to social media to voice their support for an Oprah Winfrey Presidency:
"Oprah can"
"Has there ever been an American more perfectly positioned than Oprah to achieve ultimate power?"
"Oprah can straight up make this her first speech announcing she's running for president in 2020"
"Oprah for president in 2020.I already voted"
Oprah has always been much more than a mere television host. Dubbed the Queen of all Media she's also a businesswoman, actress, producer and philanthropist - a leadership academy for young women in South Africa, just one of her charitable organisations.
In 2013 Barack Obama presented her with the Presidential medal of honour.
The ceremony was at the White House, the place many of her supporters would like her to see her in residence in 3 years time.
