Cory Booker cleared to run for president, Senate simultaneously after New Jersey enacts 'Cory's Law'

So Sparty is gonna run. And he’s hedging his bets. Whatta guy.

Cory’s Law? What a farce.

Cory Booker cleared to run for president, Senate simultaneously after New Jersey enacts 'Cory's Law'

New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy on Thursday paved way for U.S. Sen. Cory Booker, a fellow Democrat, to simultaneously run for both U.S. Senate and the presidency in 2020.

The governor signed a bill that many now call “Cory’s Law” that allows any member of the U.S. House or Senate from New Jersey to run for those offices in addition to pursuing the White House.

Booker, who recently made trips to Iowa and New Hampshire in hopes of building nationwide support, is expected to seek the Democratic Party's presidential nomination two years from now.

Republicans, meanwhile, said Booker should enter one race at the time. State Sen. Gerald Cardinale, a Republican, taunted Booker just before voting for the measure in the New Jersey Legislature.

“Spartacus had the courage to make decisions," Cardinale said, according to Politico, referring to Booker's widely mocked “Spartacus moment” episode during the confirmation hearings for Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. “He ain't no Spartacus.”

I’m siding with the Republican on this one. But there was never any doubt that Sparty was going to run...

After Dems' Kavanaugh failure, Cory Booker heads straight to Iowa

U.S. Sen. Cory Booker made his debut as a potential 2020 presidential contender, arriving in Iowa on Saturday -- just hours after casting his Senate vote against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.

A spokesman for Booker, Jeff Giertz, insisted the senator has not decided to run for president and is focused purely on the midterm elections.

Sparty is the perfect example of a ‘New’ Dimocrit. A phony, lying, fake jackass (yeah, I cleaned that up a bunch).

Sounds as if you love him. Wink
hmm I watched him for a couple of seconds now. Haven't read what was written about him here. So, I am a blank sheet. I don't love him. So, tell me straight, what is good about him?

Regardless of the path in life I chose, I realize it's always forward, never straight.

I never knew that the term "Never Again" only pertained to
those born Jewish

"Antisemite used to be someone who didn't like Jews
now it's someone who Jews don't like"

I don't see him getting any traction nationally. Too phony. Slimy as Ted Cruz. Seems the say anything type to me, what he knows is political expediency.

who have come out in support of a law that makes it illegal for folks to protest Israel's political position with respect to Palestinians (i.e. BDS, Boycott, Divest, Sanction). See the ACLU's position here.

Nope.
