Oprah: Only The Voice Of God Would Make Me Run

People Magazine reports:

There’s only one thing that could make Oprah Winfrey run for president in 2020. Amid calls for her to consider a run for the White House — from fans as well as her closest friends — “I went into prayer,” she tells PEOPLE in the magazine’s new cover story. “ ‘God, if you think I’m supposed to run, you gotta tell me, and it has to be so clear that not even I can miss it.’ And I haven’t gotten that.”

Winfrey says her best friend Gayle King urged her to take the possibility seriously and peppered her with messages of support from others who would back her. “I had people—wealthy, billionaires—calling me up and saying, ‘I can get you a billion dollars. I can run your campaign,”‘ she reveals. “That many people saying something made me think, ‘Am I at least supposed to look at the question?’ ”
