Deval Patrick to launch late-entry Democratic presidential campaign...
Fox News ^ | 11/19/2019 | Paul Steinhauser

Former Gov. Deval Patrick, D-Mass., is telling friends and allies he’s going to enter the race for the White House and is likely to announce his candidacy on Thursday, Fox News confirmed on Wednesday.

After declaring his candidacy, Patrick is expected to travel to neighboring New Hampshire to file for the state’s first-in-the-nation presidential primary. Friday is the last day for candidates to place their names on the primary ballot.

Patrick's campaign is likely to face high hurdles, including fundraising, a lack of national name recognition and entering the race extremely late in the election cycle. His move would come with less than three months to go until Iowa and New Hampshire kick off the presidential nominating calendar.

After leaving office in 2015, Patrick took a job with Bain Capital, the Boston-based private investment firm that became a liability to Mitt Romney - Patrick’s predecessor as Massachusetts governor – during Romney’s 2012 presidential campaign. Patrick’s tenure at the firm would likely be in the spotlight if he enters the 2020 race.

We’ll send Biden over to sniff him and see if he’s clean.

The media will give him a pass.

He’s a clean Negro like Obama. I can see a Patrick-Biden ticket.

He’ll likely drop out sooner rather than later....as article states..

....”Patrick mulled launching a presidential campaign ‘last year’, But late last year, Patrick announced he wouldn’t run, pointing to the.... “cruelty of our elections process.”

Obama ruined it for any black individual to win....they’re just throwing this guy out there to offset The Black Voices for Trump” coalition.....

Dems know they’re loosing the black vote and figure they’ll throw some of them this guy.

Yup, way cleaner than Booker. I wouldn’t be shocked if he ends up being the candidate. They need minority turnout, I bet a male minority candidate is better at turning out the minority vote than a female minority candidate.

Another example of how the Get Out of Jail Free Card of investigation for wrongdoing of Biden and Son supposedly being for “a rival political candidate for president” means ALL the people of the country who state they are running cannot be looked into-—or it “implies” it must be due to wanting to hurt a political foe.

Is any announced candidate more or less a foe than Biden? This new guy today? What if someone wants to look into Bloomberg’s financial dealings with foreign countries? Oops, sorry! Can’t do it or it will look like what happened to Biden and son. Too bad.

Thus nothing he did could cause Trump to tell Barr or anyone else to investigate. And what is the time limit? 4 years? 50 years? Forever?

What if the molecules of white guilt all ran out down the drains and voters go back to voting for the best candidate without regard to sex or race?

Obama was a one time cleanser for white guilt. Many voters will no longer feel the need to say “love me, I voted for a black for president.”

Notice after their pandering to Obama the white people are still called “white racists” and “white supremacists” by AOC, Omar, Bernie and the MSM. Frequently.

And whites still owe reparations after January, 2021. A large amount of white votes to elect and re-elect a black man president did not matter.

Howie Carr is going to have fun with this one. Duval is Little Obama and I say that not because 'they are both black' although it's related to that -> they play on race the same way as each other and more than that they share the same style of fake-positive politics... they are the same style of lefties. "Yes we can!" and "Hope and Change!" etc. In fact I think 'Hope and Change' was Duval's to begin with before he sold it to Obama.

I don't think it will fly with the lumpen swings/undecideds who have already been tricked by this, and these spineless undecideds are the ones making the decisions these days.

That's a pretty incomplete and rough analysis but I'm tired and sleepy so will leave it at that first reaction for now.
