Bloomberg 2016?

“If I was a billionaire, if I was a Ross Perot type, absolutely, I’d run as an independent. Because there is now profound anger at both political parties. But it takes a huge amount of money and organizational time to even get on the ballot in fifty states.”

--- Bernie Sanders

An Opening For Bloomberg?

Hillary seems to be sinking like a rock in Iowa and New Hampshire. What's going on? I did not foresee this. This makes Barack Obama look bad! :) As in, if even Sanders can do this.

Donald Trump has been a multi-faceted talent. He has not only utterly destroyed the Republican Party, he has also paved the way for New York City billionaires.

When was the last time New York City so thoroughly dominated a presidential election?

Ted Kennedy also finally gave in, and it was not pretty for him in 1980. The political brand name seems to be a media creation.

Trump takes care of the divorced and billionaire part, and Sanders takes care of the Jewish part. And suddenly, advantage Bloomberg.

What Is This Talk Of Bloomberg 2016?

I just chanced upon it yesterday somewhere. And looked it up today. What's cooking? 2016 is looking to be like New York's year. Polls at this stage don't mean much. They just mean people are not paying close attention just as yet.



Clinton and Trump Aren't Clear Party Favorites Anymore
The poll shows Clinton with a 3-point lead over Bernie Sanders in Iowa’s Democratic Party contest, with 48% of the vote, while the Vermont senator is beating the former secretary of state in New Hampshire with 50% to her 46%. ...... In a match-up between Clinton and Trump, the NBC/Marist poll showed Clinton as the preferred candidate with 48% to Trump’s 40%. The results of a Fox News poll released two days earlier showed different results, with Trump beating Clinton 47% to 44%.
Bill Ackman: Mike Bloomberg will run for president and win in 2016
Forbes estimates Bloomberg’s net worth at $38.8 billion, or nearly 4 times what Trump says he’s worth, and nearly 10 times what Forbes says Trump is worth. ...... Ackman said Hillary Clinton has proven to be a terrible candidate. And Trump has shown that the country might be willing to vote for a billionaire from New York. .... Rupert Murdoch tweeted in August that it was time for Bloomberg to enter the race. This summer the New York Post reported that a number of prominent New York Democrats dissatisfied with Clinton have tried to recruit Bloomberg for the race.
