Sen. Cory Booker made a guest appearance Tuesday night on "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert." He didn't have a book to promote, or a new television show or movie to pitch. He was there ostensibly to encourage millennials to get out and vote. He also touched on the Supreme Court nominee and Dungeons and Dragons. And he got his name and face in front of the public again.
When the inevitable question came up - will he run for president in 2020 - the senator artfully dodged.
"I am up for re-election as a United States senator in 2020, so I will be running in 2020," he said.
The question isn't new for Booker. He's been hearing it for quite awhile. A recent poll by the Washington Post put the former Newark mayor among the top five contenders for the Oval Office, along with former VP Joe Biden, and Sens. Kamala Harris, Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders. Of course, polling this far out should be taken with a grain of sand.

Um, no.
Cory Booker says he’s cried ‘tears of rage’ over Trump rhetoric, claims something ‘savagely wrong’ with US
(blah, blah, blah...)
Manager of pooper scooper patrol in Newark is too high an office for this guy.
Maybe his imaginary friend T-bone can run for his senate seat while he makes history as the first gay black presidential nominee.
I don’t know about you guys, but I’m really looking forward to the Waters-Harris-Booker food fight over who’s the most authentically black, only to watch him hold back his SJW uppercut for the perfect time to announce his great out of the closet reveal! How are everyday African-American women going to compete with a black, gay man? Answer: they cannot, my friends, they cannot.
Good.. Let all the Loons on the Left run for POTUS. They will Lose, Lose, Lose.

Don’t some blacks have high cheekbones?
It would be a twofer.
Honestly, would anyone believe the published results of such a test? There’s so many liars out there.
as the first gay black presidential nominee”
I think you meant openly gay.....
Point taken. I’m looking forward to Reggie Love’s real tell-all book.
Only if cries with rage every time he wants a little media attention.
Booker sounds like a hysterical ten year old girl who just saw a spider.
President? I wouldn’t hire him to clean the toilets in the Capitol Building.
And don’t forget Booger is only half black.
Yes! Crazy Cory should run and show everyone how delusional the democrat party is.
Can he run for reelection and the Presidency at the same time?
Obama was a Communist Muslim but this guy is just Crazy
It would only be fair since Hillary got to do that.
Doubt it, but he has until April 2020 to file reelection senate June primary
