Looks like he has hired David Plouffe (Obama's 2008 campaign manager) and Tim Kaine's communication director as well. I wonder how many Democrats are actually going to support this guy's run?

"For someone who claims to not be running for president, Facebook founder and C.E.O. Mark Zuckerberg has a strange way of showing it. For much of the past year, hes been touring the United States on a cross-country road trip (really, a cross-country private plane trip) that has taken him to red-state touchstones like the Fort Worth Stock Show and an oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico, as well as a detour to Alaska, where Zuckerberg praised the states universal basic income. (Zuckerberg has described these small-town photo ops as part of his New Years resolution to gain a broader perspective in the wake of a politically turbulent year at his company.) Now, Zuckerbergwho, again, has said that he is definitely not running for presidenthas hired Democratic pollster Joel Benenson, a chief adviser to Barack Obama, the chief strategist of Hillary Clintons failed 2016 campaign, and a man whose official bio boasts that he is the only Democratic pollster in history to have played a leading role in three winning presidential campaigns."
