I can’t even say this is a surprise, because everyone saw it coming. Cory Booker has been positioning himself to run for president for what feels like forever– even before his infamous “Spartacus” moment.
He waited until Feb 1st– the first day of Black History Month– to launch his presidential campaign. Take THAT, Kamala!
I’m running for president. Join me on this journey. https://t.co/fEDqOVIfwh pic.twitter.com/h1FTPUYRzo

“The history of our nation is defined by collective action; by interwoven destinies of slaves and abolitionists; of those born here and those who chose America as home; of those who took up arms to defend our country, and those who linked arms to challenge and change it,” Booker said in his video announcement
.
“I’m Cory Booker and I’m running for president of the United States of America.”
Ugh. His “politician” voice is so irritating. (I wonder what talent he’ll display at the Democratic Party variety show??? Singing? Dancing? Juggling? Any other guesses?)
