Bloomberg Will Not Be Running For President
On Thursday Jan. 31st, After a good bit of speculation, Mayor Michael Bloomberg says that he is not a candidate for president and will stay that way and finish out his term as Mayor of New York City.
In a visit to Google’s offices in New York City, Bloomberg said he is not a presidential candidate and that he’ll “stay that way,” a slightly stronger indication that he does not intend to seek the presidency.
For Bloomberg watchers who vigorously dissect every syllable, flinch and facial expression when he answers questions about whether he will seek the White House, the response went a bit further than he has gone in recent months.
Bloomberg, a technology mogul who founded the financial information company that bears his name, spoke to about 250 Google employees at their vast offices in Manhattan.
When asked if he was going to run for president, Bloomberg said, “No. Next question.”
Later, when a reporter asked about whether he might run, he said he is “not a candidate, and I’ll stay that way,” adding “I plan to finish out my term.”
