Bill Richardson is officially in the race for the Democratic nomination for president. He announced his candidacy today in Los Angeles.
The former congressman and Cabinet secretary said his track record makes him the right person to lead the country through a pivotal time. He played up his experience to set him apart in the field with some more famous and better-funded rivals.
“Some are rock stars,” said Richardson, who represented New Mexico in Congress and served as President Clinton’s energy secretary and ambassador to the United Nations. “I am not, but I have a proven record.”
Go, Bill, go!
