Have you noticed that Barak Obama has been speaking out much more often lately?

Up until now he has sort of been in the background of the American scene since leaving office, but suddenly he is appearing at high profile political events and being interviewed by CNN. Why now?

This is not just because Barak feels an urge to address his fellow Americans. No, it's not because he has a need to get out more often to share a few insights. Oh no. This is part of an orchestrated plan. Remember, nothing the Democrat left does is by chance. There is always a motive behind every action.

Ever since Joe Biden formally announced that he was running for re-election the Democrats have been nervous. Many Democrats would rather have another candidate. Some believe that Biden's health and cognitive decline are a problem. His speaking gaffs are numerous and worrisome. And now it appears he boards Airforce One from the back of the plane to avoid photos capturing him tripping on the steep stairs of the ramp.

Then we have the Biden crime family saga, which has been gaining press traction even by the usually Biden friendly media. A crook isn't exactly the ideal man you'd like for a candidate. And a crook isn't what most people want to see serving as the president of the United States, let alone an embarrassing feeble dotard crook.

Biden will be well into his eighties as he begins his second term. Chances are he might not be able to complete that four year period, and that leaves the country in the hands of the vice president. The prospect of Kamala Harris taking over the reins at the White House is frightening given her obvious ineptitude. Both Republicans and Democrats know she just isn't up to it. More and more voters are realizing the same thing. So what to do?

The whole reason Kamala is in the position she's in, is because as the saying goes, she checked off the politically correct boxes. She's is a woman. Check. She is black. Check. She isn't a lesbian or transgender however, but hey, you can't have everything. The point is, she is not easily replaceable on the ticket. You certainly can't replace Kamala with a white man like a Gavin Newsom. The left would have conniption fits. And you can't even replace her with a black man, that too would be seen as a step backward.

No, the only thing you can do is replace Kamala with another black woman. But it must be a black woman who is perceived as more serious, more qualified, more "presidential" than Harris is. So who could that be? Hmmm. That's right, Michelle Obama. She's been there, knows her way around the White House and D.C. And the liberals love her.

She is the sure fire way for the Democrats to retain control of the White House. If Biden can't finish his term, for whatever reason, Michelle steps in and takes Barak along for the ride. But he's not simply along for any ride, of course, what you get is Barak Obama's third term. Maybe pushing for a fourth. Liberal voters from coast to coast will be chomping at the bit to vote the Biden/Obama ticket into office. It's the perfect answer to the Democrats' problems. I promise you; they can't lose with that duo.

And there you have it, the whole reason why Barack Obama has been so very visible in the media lately. He's laying the groundwork for the winning presidential ticket of 2024. I could be wrong, but I don't think so. It makes too much sense. It's an opportunity for consolidation of power and continued authoritarianism that the Dems will not let pass.

Let's see what happens in the months ahead.
