Subject: News Alert: Billionaire and ex-New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg 
is taking steps to run for president, months after saying he would not run

 

A spokesman said that Bloomberg “believes that Donald Trump represents an 
unprecedented threat to our nation” and that “the current field of candidates 
is not well positioned” to defeat him. He plans to file for access to the 
Alabama ballot before Friday’s deadline; deadlines for filing for additional 
state ballots are looming. In March, Bloomberg said that he would not run for 
president after concluding that his path to the Democratic nomination was 
narrow and that he could accomplish more as a private citizen. “I am clear-eyed 
about the difficulty of winning the Democratic nomination in such a crowded 
field,” he said then.
