[Iran Press TV] US presidential candidate  Hillary Clinton... sometimes described as the Smartest Woman in the World and at other times as Mrs. Bill, never as Another Henry L. Stimson... has vowed to win the Democratic Party's nomination to "relieve" former New York City mayor and billionaire  Michael NannyBloomberg of any thoughts of running for president. The race is wide open. Anybody with a few billion can get in. "The way I read what he said is if I didn't get the nomination, he might consider it," Clinton told NBC News on Sunday. "Well, I'm going to relieve him of that and get the nomination so he doesn't have to [run]." "He's a good friend of mine, and I'm going to do the best I can to make sure that I get the nomination, and we'll go from there," she added. According to a report, Bloomberg is considering a third-party White House run if race comes down to Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders ...The only openly Socialist member of the U.S. Senate. Sanders was Representative-for-Life from Vermont until moving to the Senate for the rest of his life in 2006, assuming the seat vacated by Jim Jeffords... and Republican frontrunner Donald Trump. The billionaire has advised friends and associates that he would be willing to spend at least $1 billion of his own money on a campaign for the November 2016 election, the New York Times ...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize... reported on Friday, citing sources briefed on the former mayor's plans.
