After teasing Americans for more than a year, New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg announced that he would not be pursuing any independent candidacy for the Presidency. 

Bloomberg wrote in a New York Timeseditorial : “While I have always said I am not running for president, the race is too important to sit on the sidelines, and so I have changed my mind in one area,” Bloomberg wrote. “If a candidate takes an independent, nonpartisan approach — and embraces practical solutions that challenge party orthodoxy — I’ll join others in helping that candidate win the White House.”
