Re “Bloomberg Bid for Presidency Starts to Rustle” (front page, Nov. 8):

Michael Bloomberg may be the Democrats’ best and only chance to capture the White House in 2020, and I’m super-psyched that the former three-term mayor of New York City appears to be throwing his hat into the ring!

In this writer’s opinion there is no candidate on the Democratic side who can beat Donald Trump, if he survives impeachment. Joe Biden is too old, Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren are too far to the left and too angry, and Mayor Pete is just too young and inexperienced.

Michael Bloomberg was the best mayor that New York ever had. He would finance most of his own campaign and not be beholden to any individual or corporate entities. He stands among the strongest proponents of gun control laws and is a huge supporter of the environment and a woman’s right to choose.

These are the very qualities America needs after almost three years of Donald Trump in the Oval Office. Mr. Bloomberg’s candidacy would energize the Democratic base and attract huge numbers of independent voters. I like Mike!
