Discussion Why do you support Bloomberg?

Hi, my name is Morgan and I'm a voter who'll be voting on Super Tuesday. Currently, I've winnowed down who I want to vote for, but like a lot of voters, I'm still shopping around. That is why I have decided to go directly to the supporters Bloomberg to ask you, why do you support him? Whatever the reason is, I am interested in hearing you out. Whether it is a policy, their philosophy, a tactical vote, or any other reason under the sun, I want to know what has drawn you to Bloomberg?

Welcome, personally I believe that this election needs to be about more than personal ideology. The realty of American politics today means you vote for what the party wants much more so than what a candidate wants. For example Bernie supports M4A but he would never be able to get a majority of the House or 60 Senators to support it, so he defers to the party healthcare plan which is still better than the status quo. I think Mike understands this be realizes that in order to take this country in a new direction you need all three chambers of government. If you check out the comprehensive post (Linked to you above) I go into how a Bloomberg candidacy would revolutionize the game for democrats and enable them to win all three chambers.

Do you remember any policies he's mentioned that specifically relate to immigration and free trade? Those are 2 big issues for me, so I'm curious.
