The Bloomberg check list
Bloomberg? The Huffington Post was in a dither for 24 hours - mostly because they have quietly given up on Obama and need a new candidate to continue their "Contempt for Hillary" train a-rolling.
1. Do I agree with Bloomberg on most major issues thus far? Yes.
2. Does he pass the gut check? Yes
3. Do I like the "idea" of what he represents to America -in this case - an intelligent independent as President? - Yes
3b. Do I like the other "idea" of what he represents - in this case a very, very rich white guy can buy the Presidency? No. This is a real problem. Pundits talk about his cash like IT IS HIS IDEOLOGY.
4. Do I think he is capable? Maybe. Can't be any worse than the bozo in there now.
5. Do I think he is qualified? No. Not yet. Contrary to popular main stream, New York based, media assumption - the rest of us in the U.S.A. do not automatically think that running New York City qualifies one to be President. Bloomberg is certainly more qualified than Rudy the Clown - but being a mayor - even of New York City - is not enough. Being very rich is not enough.
