Roseanne for President?

Roseanne just announced that she’s running for president! Honestly, I am in love with the idea. Roseanne is the epitome of the powerful domestic goddess. She is the woman who made women real on TV, not ignored or arm candy but actual real people with problems. She gave a voice to the disenfranchised, the hard working poor people, the LGBT community, the working moms, and so many others the media typically neglects. She’s also the one who taught me “the more space a woman takes up, the more she has to be reckoned with.”

She says that she’s not with either party, declaring both to be nothing but criminals, and has declared her own “Green Tea Party.”

Unfortunately, I don’t think she’s really going to do it, though; I fear it is a publicity stunt for her new show, Roseanne’s Nuts! That said, if she is serious—and she did just publish a book, which many candidates do when running for office—she might have an actual chance. Californians elected Schwarzenegger, didn’t they? And actor Ronald Reagan somehow managed to wheedle his way into the White House. If anyone on this planet is going to represent me—and most of the other women of this nation, which is what we’ve all been waiting for—it could very well be Roseanne.
