The comedic potential of this guy running should not be overlooked.

Lately comedy in american politics has been lacking and this may just be the ticket to provide an easier living for stand up comedians.

Seriously though, his entry into the race can only generate even more money for himself......

(By coincidence the man has 8 Billion dollars more than I do and a much easier time making it........)

and at least we should be able to get some entertainment out of the deal in return.......
