Mark Zuckerberg will be 35 in time for a 2020 presidential run. And yes, his visits to Ohio and Wisconsin have led to major chatter.
But is the Facebook founder and billionaire really going to start wearing suits and ties full time with a small American flag pin? Not likely.
Back in January, however, Vanity Fair’s Nick Bilton made a case for a young POTUS.
“When I’ve asked people in Silicon Valley if a Zuckerberg bid is potentially real, the consensus seems to be: absolutely,” Bilton wrote.
“If you ask me, Zuckerberg’s biggest problem is that he’s not the most sociable. He sticks to himself and his company, doesn’t entertain people outside his very tight circle of friends and associates, and appears to be more socially awkward than Howard Hughes. But, he also clearly isn’t driven by money — he’s the sixth-richest person in the world and has vowed to donate most of his wealth. He wants something bigger. Something that gives him more impact and influence on the planet.”
As the now viral Vindy.com story reports,
“A Newton Falls [Ohio] family was in shock when Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg showed up for dinner at their home Friday evening. … Zuckerberg had asked his staff to find Democrats who had voted for President Donald Trump in November’s election.”
