Seizing on Oprah Winfrey’s post-Golden Globes 2020 moment, NBC anchor Willie Geist at a New York awards ceremony Thursday put up a name for a 2028 presidential run: Wes Moore, a friend of Winfrey’s and Geist’s, and chief executive of the Robin Hood Foundation.

“I just can’t wait to quit my job someday to be his communications director,” Geist said, to which Moore replied, “When you’re president, I just want to be ambassador to a country where I don’t have to wear shoes -- Jamaica or Tobago.”
