Ex-San Antonio mayor Julián Castro is teasing a ‘special announcement’ next weekend in his hometown having to do with his ‘2020 presidential plans.’
The former Obama administration official who launched an exploratory committee last month is expected to enter the Democratic competition for the Oval Office.
Castro is the first of the major Democratic contenders to take the leap — other power players such as Texas rival and ex-Rep. Beto O’Rourke are still building out their operations. […]
Castro became the first nationally-known Democrat to say he is considering a presidential bid on on Dec. 12, making an announcement on Twitter that he had formally launched an exploratory committee.
The former Housing and Urban Development Secretary to Obama and San Antonio mayor made his opening bid a YouTube video introducing himself and his value system to Americans.
Without mentioning the current Oval Office occupant, he said, ‘Americans are ready to climb out of this darkness. We’re ready to keep our promises, and we’re not gonna wait — we’re gonna work.
‘That’s why I’m exploring a candidacy for President of the United States in 2020,’ he announced.
