Gillibrand: I Have to Consider Whether I’m ‘Called’ to Run for President
 
November 13, 2018 7:57 am

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D., N.Y.) said she has to consider whether she is "called" to run for president in 2020.

Asked about her decision-making process, Gillibrand responded, "So, for me it's whether this is what I need to be doing. It's sort of, you know, are you prepared in a time such as this to do something that's very hard and difficult, regardless of whether you will win, regardless of whether it's easy, but you're doing it because out of that moral conviction?"

"And so for me the sole thing I have to consider, that I have to think long and hard about is whether this is what I'm called to do," Gillibrand told Chris Hayes, host of MSNBC's "All In." "And otherwise, I will continue to fight as hard as I can for New Yorkers and be a voice for them in Washington and fight for the middle class families that are desperate and need health care as a right and all the other issues that are pressing on families in my state."

Maybe she should check with Pope Francis to make sure she is on the right line. *****rollingeyes*****

I've called her several things,and don't remember any of them being "presidential candidate".

Yet any Republican who suggests that God condoned their candidacy is treated as a kook. I guess it goes to show it doesn't go both ways.

Did God show up to support her in person,and I somehow missed this?

  • That is the problem with everything. They try and make it better without realizing the old is fine.

She may not be "called" but she sure is "touched"
