Peter Thiel, the Silicon Valley billionaire and outspoken Donald Trump supporter, is considering a 2018 bid for California governor, according to three Republicans familiar with his thinking.
Thiel, who co-founded PayPal and was an early investor in Facebook, has been discussing a prospective bid with a small circle of advisers, including Rob Morrow, who has emerged as his political consigliere.
Morrow has worked at Clarium Capital, the San Francisco-based investment management firm and hedge fund that Thiel started.

Wow would that be interesting. Pretty smart guy, wonder if he would stand a chance.
Probably not. His evil white maleness would trump his gayness - especially when the Free S**t Army figures out he is a libertarian and a threat to their monthly payments.
I think he would have a great chance. He is a brilliant guy
HOORAY Peter Thiel
All democrats have to run on now is being the first. First black. First Mexican. First transgender. First transracial. First gay lesbian.
Who will run against Thiel?
“The Governor shall be an elector who has been a citizen of the United States and a resident of this State for 5 years immediately preceding the Governor’s election.”
Darn, I assumed the Dems would be running an illegal immigrant. Well, there’s still time to change that xenophobic, racist, etc. clause!
Gavin Newsom.
One of the most white, and straight men will run. Gavin Newsom. Guaranteed.
He’s a commie though. I guess that counts.
man, what choices we have. I’ll take the pro-gun homo (thiel) over the homo gun grabber (newsome).
Jerry Brown is the posterboy for lifetime term limits.
Thiel has done some good of late, certainly in his support of Trump.
But isn’t he the guy who pulled Pay-Pal out of North Carolina because the sick queers want to pee with little girls, etc. etc....?
How does sodomy square with Latino/Chicano culture. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/monica-trasandes/maricona-word-that-haunts_b_3744544.html
Hmmm.
He is homosexual.
That helps him in CA.
You want to see hate, just see how gays react to a fellow gay who is conservative.
I don’t doubt you, but he doesn’t seem to have enthusiasm from the Dem voters.
Porking his Chief of Staff’s old lady wasn’t a good move.
I wonder...Kimberley Guilfoyle who used to be married to him, said on FNC the other night she’d “guarantee” that Gavin Newsome would be the next Gov. SHe seemed to mentally hold her nose while saying it.
I forgot California doesn’t have Dems and Reps. They can actually run two Dems.
Sure would put those limbs between a rock and a hard spot to run against Gavin Newsom
newsome is evil. well most in cali politics are.
We would send him money. We are strongly against homosexual behavior, but my wife and I greatly appreciate his stance and backing of Trump.
