Former mayor of New York MICHAEL BLOOMBERG is seen in a press conference in Jerusalem prior to a ceremony in which he will receive the Genesis Prize, and an award of one million dollars, which he will later donate. This is the first year the Genesis Prize is taking place, the project "seeks to recognize individuals who have attained excellence and international renown in their chosen professional fields, and whose actions, in addition to their achievements, embody the character of the Jewish people through commitment to Jewish values, the Jewish community and/or to the State of Israel." as it explained in the website.

After representatives for former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg filed his paperwork in Alabama Friday, the possible presidential bid got off to an inauspicious start.

The seeming rollout of his 2020 logo earned instant derision for its goofy script and odd tagline: “owning it together!”

However, team Bloomberg quickly shut down the fun.

According to CNN, a Bloomberg spokesman said that if he does choose to run, he will not contest the four early primary states due to his late entry into the race. He seems to be running due to worry that former Vice President Joe Biden, who he sees as the best chance of beating President Donald Trump, won’t win the nomination.
