Eric Holder says he’s considering a run for the White House
NY Times ^ | February 7, 2018 | Mark Moore

Eric Holder, former President Barack Obama’s attorney general, confirmed Wednesday that he’s considering throwing his hat in the ring for the 2020 presidential race.

“We’ll see,” he said during a breakfast sponsored by the Christian Science Monitor in Washington, DC.

He was asked if he’s mulling a run for the White House because he’s learning how to raise funds and giving political speeches.

“I think I’ll make a decision by the end of the year about whether or not there is another chapter in my government service,” he replied.

Holder, who served as attorney general from 2009 to 2015, has been traveling the country speaking out against the gerrymandering of congressional districts.

I cannot prove it but I wonder if he was the guy on TV swearing that David Koresh was never in the city of Waco alone? (despite all the eyewitness accounts of Waco residents, that is)

Be extremely careful what you wish for.

Millions of idiots can and will vote for them.

Yes there are millions of idiots who vote.

But I believe that after Obama, it will be a long long time before we vote for another anti-American ultra left-wing professional black race-baiter as POTUS.

I remember that contempt vote. Congress wanted to speak with Holder and he told them to piss off. They charged Holder with contempt and Obama pardoned him citing executive privilege.

People can laugh all they want about Eric Holder but the man was a badass AG. Holder would've never recused himself or allowed for a special counsel to investigate the president. He had Obama's back and Obama had his back.

Jeff Sessions could learn a few things.

Wrong. This TRUE S.O.B., held in contempt by Congress, does not have the Balls to run for President. By the time the D.O.J. -I.G. Report comes out by the End of March, this sorry scumbag will be hiding in the shadows, if he’s not brought up on charges himself!

Running for Pres. is a good way to deflect criminal prosecution as political persecution.
