On Sunday, former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz told 60 Minutes’ Scott Pelley that he is seriously considering a run for president in 2020.

Not everyone was pleased.

Shortly after he took to the stage for a talk at a Barnes & Noble in Manhattan on Monday, Schultz was heckled.

“I am seriously considering running for president as a centrist independent,” Schultz said during the discussion, echoing his remarks on 60 Minutes. “And I wanted to clarify the word independent, which I view merely as a designation on the ballot.”...

“billionaire a-hole”

They are taking a cue from their newest God Alexandria No Cortex who announced last week that being a billionaire is immoral. Yes, rich shouldn’t exist, everyone should make the same salary because that’s worked out so well.

It’s good to hear that Howard Schultz is getting a taste of his political soulmates.

Now there’s an insult I don’t hear everyday.
The last time someone who deserved that line was in the news, Mayor Bloomberg was trying to tax soda pops.

Manhattan as well as the rest of New york it seems, is now a communist run state. Why would he have a book signing there? Man has got some gonads.

He did write a book that seemed to support capitalism.

This is the same leftard clown who singlehandedly destroyed Starbucks and handed all stores to drug addicts and loafers because 1 employee felt threatened by black dudes in the store.

These billionaire liberals may support capitalism to cover their wallets but the other 95% of their principles are against our conservative ideals..

Schultz is social liberal, pro-abortion and pro gay-marriage. He is conservative on “some” fiscal issues such as he is against the expanding debt.

I don’t believe he’ll run as an independent. I believe the demos will in some way mislead him into not running.

It’s about time the left dealt with their own circular firing squad.

When compared to a RAT today he actually would be a centrist considering how socialist leaning the RAT Party has become.

Of course he doesn't believe in Borders, they went out of business years ago. That's why he had to have the book signing at Barnes and Novels.
