If he does enter the race I hope he’s doing it to actually try to become president rather than just helping the party neutralize Elizabeth Warren.
He’s a guy who would appeal immediately to my moderate leanings. He’s smart, he’s tough, he’s a real billionaire, and he actually believes in helping other people.
But most of all he’s not Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren. He’s not a far left Dem who would help Donald Trump sway moderate Republicans and Independents his way if Warren remains the Dem frontrunner.
He wouldn’t have a chance in a places like Oklahoma, but neither did Bill Clinton or Barack Obama.
I hate to be this way, but the two best things Donald Trump has going for him are his Jerry Springer-like dysfunctional base and Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders. Actually, I guess that’s three things.
If the Dems go to bat with Elizabeth Warren as the Dem candidate they are basically pushing the Republic towards the cliff of another four years of Donald Trump. Not complex.
So, yeah…..I hope Michael Bloomberg runs for president so I could have someone to vote for this time around. If he made Michael Bennett his vice-presidential choice…even better.
