If Donald Trump can win the presidency, why couldn't Oprah Winfrey? Winfrey meets all three constitutional tests to run for president: She's over 35 years old, she's a U.S. citizen born in the United States, and she has lived here for more than 14 years.
Her wealth would be an enormous asset, just as Trump's was. Winfrey's net worth is $2.8 billion, according to Forbes. Winfrey's candidacy would indeed defy the historical pattern of voters picking presidents they expect to correct a predecessor's flaws, said Katie Merrill, a Democratic strategist in the San Francisco Bay Area. One of the starker examples: President Carter, widely seen as weak, was ousted by tough-talking Ronald Reagan. Winfrey supported Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton for president. Mocking Winfrey online, some conservatives posted photos of her at glitzy banquets with former movie producer Harvey Weinstein, who was disgraced by the multiple allegations of sexual abuse against women that helped set off the
#MeToo movement. So the question is, why not Oprah.
