While I am a great admirer of Oprah Winfrey I do not think it wise of her to run for president (Never say never, G2, 9 January. The next president will have considerable repair work to do to the political, economic and social fabric of the US. It will require brains, which she certainly has, and experience, which she clearly does not. Better that she should develop her moral eminence with experience of important NGOs so that, in due course, she can replace the appalling Nikki Haley as US ambassador to the UN. There she really could shine a light in the dark.
