Yes...it would seem "Oprah's friends publicly dismiss the idea that she had a falling out with Obama" however she didn't campaign for Obama in the 2012 race for POTUS reelection and has been conspicuous by her absence from Obama's battles on immigration reform and gun control amongst other things. The White House wanted celebrities, including "the Queen of All Media" up to generate decent publicity for ObamaCare, Oprah refused [NYP];
"All of Oprah's top people thought she would go, because when the president invites you to the White House, most people automatically say yes,” said one of Oprah’s closest advisers. “But Oprah said she didn't have the time or inclination to go. It wasn't like she had to think it over. It was an immediate, flat-out, unequivocal no."Maybe she knew what a complete balls-up it would be: NYT "Obamacare, Failing Ahead of Schedule"...
Update: you could opt-out...
