I'd like to think that he does have a shot. Colorado prospered in the 8 years he was the governor of my state - I especially like how healthcare here has improved under his leadership, and I like the idea of having someone trained in the sciences at the helm of our country as we deal with the existential threat of global warming. Hickenlooper has been able to reach across the aisle and work with members of both parties during both his stint as Denver's mayor and as Colorado's governor. He's a dark horse in the presidential race, but one it wouldn't hurt to place a bet on to win. He's honest, steadfast and very real - qualities you seldom encounter in today's political scene.

I'd love to see him go toe to toe with tRump - Hickenlooper is his polar opposite in every way. Time will tell, but at this point he has my complete support!
