I feel the need to point something out. This should help anyone talking to friends, family, and potential supporters. While all of the recent endorsements are FANTASTIC, the most important news from the past couple of weeks is BLOOMBERG.
Bloomberg has made it very clear that his point in a potential candidacy is for UNITY. He wants the nominees to be sincere and vocal in their actions and words about bipartisanship. He feels very strongly that the next President must work with people from both sides of the aisle to form strategies and solutions for the myriad of challenges and problems we face. This is one of the main themes of Obama's campaign; and, indeed, his life's work.
Bloomberg will only run if Hillary Clinton is the Democratic nominee. He will NOT RUN if Obama is the nominee. This is very clear and has been confirmed by those closest to him.
Bloomberg was a Democrat before he ran as a Republican for mayor of NYC. He only ran as a Republican because it's easier to get the Republican nomination since there is much less competition. His social views are much more in line with the Democratic party's. Therefore, in a Presidential general election, he will take many more votes from the Democrat than the Republican.
Because of these obvious FACTS, if Hillary is the nominee, Bloomberg will run and take enough Democratic votes that she will LOSE. She CAN NOT WIN THE GENERAL ELECTION. Period. This is a fact. She enters the race with 47% (a conservative estimate) of the population saying they will NEVER vote for her. If she continues her negative, Rove/Bush-style campaign tactics, this number can only grow.
So, please, point these facts out to EVERY Democrat and Republican you speak with. This is VERY important. If we don't want another Republican in the White House, the ONLY CHOICE IS OBAMA!!!
