Patrick Eyes Possible White House Bid

https://politicalwire.com/2018/03/06/patrick-eyes-possible-white-house-bid/

"SNIP..........

Former Gov. Deval Patrick (D), who has largely shunned politics since leaving office and joining Bain Capital in 2015, acknowledged his interest in a possible presidential run in 2020, the Boston Globe reports.

Said Patrick: “It’s on my radar screen.”

He elaborated: “I am trying to think through 2020, and that’s a decision I’m trying to think through from a personal and family point of view and also whether what I believe is going to be on offer by somebody. And if it’s on offer by somebody then maybe what I can do is help that person. But we’ll see.”

Isn't that Romney's old company?

Why do I think that Patrick's interests will be far more aligned with the oligarchy than with the rest of us?

He's an opportunist. I didn't really like him as MA Gov and I really don't want him running for President as a Democrat.
