Will Chris Daggett Run for President of the United States?

In an interview with the New York times, Independent Candidate Chris Daggett told NY times reporter David M. Halbfinger that come election day win or lose, thinking about using his campaign as a platform for “talking on a broader level outside of New Jersey about the independence movement.” What exactly does Chris Daggett mean by a “broader level” outside of NJ? Perhaps Chris Daggett will run for President of the United States. It is a possibility, voters this year are irate and independent and it looks like a trend that will not go away any time soon.

Over and over again, Mr. Daggett tries to overcome such reservations. “I’m at the point where if all the people who say they’re unhappy with both parties vote for me, it won’t even be close,” he told Mr. McLaughlin. “It takes everyone saying a vote for me is a vote for me.”

Chris Daggett is right, and the frustration is not only localized to here in NJ. It is a nation wide trend. Chris Daggett’s comment that he may use his campaign as a talking platform on a broader level outside of New Jersey can only lead one to the conclusion that Chris Daggett may have Presidential aspirations for 2012.

While there is no official word that Chris Daggett will make a run for President one can make the assumption that his comment is putting the thought on the table.
