Miami GOP Mayor Francis Suarez officially launched his 2024 presidential campaign with a video released Thursday morning, marking the long-shot candidate’s formal entry to the race.

In an interview with CBS News last month, Suarez said deciding on a presidential bid was a “soul-searching process.” He also nodded to his lack of national name recognition, saying, “I’m someone who needs to be better known by this country.”

  1. Narcissistic much?
  2. It sounds like he’s running for some cabinet postition.

It does seem, though, if Republicans focus on the conservative ideas that conservative minority voters care about, and aren’t stupid about piling all people of color into the “enemy” category, they can make some significant gains and overcome the inevitable demographic disadvantage that they will face if they keep the GOP as the party of white Christians only. (And, byt the way, the Democrats have to stop taking racial minorities’ votes for granted. That, I think, is one area where Biden shines.)
