Would you consider voting for Howard Schultz?

[HeyJude514]

Schultz wants to cut Social Security, Medicare and other so called entitlement programs.

That's a non-starter for most Democrats. Running on a platform like that should appeal to the Republican voters who routinely vote against their own interests when a billionaire tells them to, though, so I think he's more a threat to the GOP than he is to Democratic candidates.

That's just a business deal.

I don't know enough about him yet to comment on voting for him...but it always worries me a bit if someone running has no experience in national political scene. Even a few years experience, like Obama, helps...
