[Political Junkie Too]

Recently, I've been thinking of the John Quincy Adams example.

Adams was a one-term President from before there were term limits. The year after he lost his reelection for a second term, Adams ran for and won a seat in the House of Representatives. He served in the House for three terms post-Presidency.

What would happen of Barack Obama decided to run again for the Senate? He would win in a landslide.

Based on this, here is my latest conspiracy theory:

1. Joe Biden chooses Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) to be his running mate for his doomed Presidential campaign.
2. Sen. Duckworth announces that she is stepping down as Senator "to devote her full attention the campaign."
3. Illinois Governor J. B. Pritzker (D) appoints former President and former Illinois Senator Barack Obama to fill Duckworth's seat.
4. Senator Obama would then take the Minority Leadership away from Chuck Schumer.
5. Senator Obama becomes the de facto head of the Democrat Party and displaces Nancy Pelosi as the MSM face of the resistance.

This gets Obama and his team back into government in the most powerful way available to him, as the most powerful Democrat to oppose President Trump going into the 2020 election. It would be too late to put Obama on the 2020 ballot to officially fill out Duckworth's term, and would keep him in the seat until at least a 2021 special election can be held.

Not bad, quite plausible if Odumbo wasn’t busy golfing and chooming...he’s too lazy for all that Senator nonsense. The first time was just a placeholder that he did nothing with.

Sounds like a lot of work and Obama hates work. I think he’s happy where he’s at. Giving speeches and raking in the dough.
