A few days ago the former Mayor of New York, Michael Bloomberg, said he was interested in running for President on the Democrat ticket. He'd make a great candidate.

Mike Bloomberg is a political windsock. One has to do a better job not coming across as an apostate to be taken seriously...

List the reasons he'd make a good candidate.
Thanks in advance.

1) He has experience managing New York City, which I'm sure is a difficult job.
2) He said concerning Donald Trump, "I know a con when I see one". That means he is very observant.
3) He is a successful businessman. I've never heard of him filing for bankruptcy, so he must be good at what he does. Unlike the current CIC.

There is an old recording of Mike Bloomberg making insensitive remarks about young Black men. He was discussing the Stop and Frisk program they used to have in New York when he was the Mayor.
Wonder if this is going to hurt him politically?

Micheal Bloomberg did not perform well in last night's debate in Las Vegas. He was totally unprepared. And, it appeared that all the other candidates were ganging up on him.
If he intends to stay in the race, he needs to learn some better debating and campaigning skills. TV commercials are not enough.

Insensitive remarks????

Had Trump or ANY republican said what that midget said about black men you'd be screaming racism from the high heavens. But you WILL give him a pass. No question about it. You will never call out one of your own even if you had a video of him physically bitch slapping a black guy verses doing it verbally like he did.

And YOU know this.

Trump has said worse things about Black people than Bloomberg said. I didn't want to use the word racist because I'm trying to get that word out of my vocabulary.
Trump said:
1) "Get those son-of-bitches off the field".
2) "Maxine Waters is a low IQ individual".
3) "Omarosa is a dog"
4) He called African countries "shithole countries".
I think Bloomberg sounds tame compared to Trump. But, I still think he was wrong.

Not one single thing you listed is racist. Just truthful.

Race or color is not mentioned anywhere.

Bloomberg said ......quite emphatically. .....95% of crime in this country is committed by men of color aged 16 to 26.

Fact.

1-3 are accurate

#4 - Oh you thought he was referring to 'African' countries ?

That's interesting

Race or color doesn't need to be mentioned. We all know what he meant. Just like we know what he meant when he said Obama was born in Kenya. He didn't mention Obama's race; he didn't have to.

He needs to take his $ and gtf away.
 
Oh.........the ol' Lee Atwater "laid it all out" trick.

Got it.
Not enough apparently.


Atwater: As to the whole Southern strategy that Harry S. Dent, Sr. and others put together in 1968, opposition to the Voting Rights Act would have been a central part of keeping the South. Now you don't have to do that. All that you need to do to keep the South is for Reagan to run in place on the issues that he's campaigned on since 1964, and that's fiscal conservatism, balancing the budget, cut taxes, you know, the whole cluster.

Questioner: But the fact is, isn't it, that Reagan does get to the Wallace voter and to the racist side of the Wallace voter by doing away with legal services, by cutting down on food stamps?

Atwater: Y'all don't quote me on this. You start out in 1954 by saying, "Nigger, nigger, nigger". By 1968 you can't say "nigger"—that hurts you. Backfires. So you say stuff like forced busing, states' rights and all that stuff. You're getting so abstract now [that] you're talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you're talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is [that] blacks get hurt worse than whites. And subconsciously maybe that is part of it. I'm not saying that. But I'm saying that if it is getting that abstract, and that coded, that we are doing away with the racial problem one way or the other. You follow me—because obviously sitting around saying, "We want to cut this", is much more abstract than even the busing thing, and a hell of a lot more abstract than "Nigger, nigger". So, any way you look at it, race is coming on the backbone.[11][12][13]

Thank you for posting this Wikipedia link. It is very tragic, but as long as politicians know they can use race as a political tool, that is what they will continue to do. They will turn us against each other just to get a few more votes.
We must stop letting them do this!

It would help if you stopped supporting people like this:
