Who thinks Michael Bloomberg will run for the 2016 Democratic nomination?

If he's president there won't be a 20oz soft drink in the whole country.

Update:

Mark - he started as a Democrat, switched to Republican, and is now an Independent. I think it was a plot to get money from every walk of life. It worked.

    He's an Independent.

    So, not me.

    He is an Independent who, if he ran as an Independent, would hurt the Democratic candidate because he is essentially left of center and would slough off votes. I am sure there will be a black market for regular sodas in New York.

    the obesity and diabetes epidemics started when the beverage industry switched from sugar to high fructose corn sweetener . it hits your body like you were drinking liquid lard .

    on the plus side , bloomberg spent over $ 100 .00 PER vote on his last election . it would be a great stimulus for the economy if he ran .

    I'd be down with it. That would present the election to the Republicans on a silver platter.

    Bloomberg is NOT liberal. He was a Republican and switched to Independent. He certainly embraces liberal social issues but he's a fiscal conservative

    I don't, he is too liberal for most liberals.

    Even liberals like soda.
