Bloomberg campaign rolled out in American Samoa

Pago Pago, AMERICAN SAMOA — The US billionaire and Democratic Party presidential hopeful, Mike Bloomberg, has sent representatives to American Samoa to drum-up support in the party's territorial caucus.

The caucus is in Pago Pago on 'Super Tuesday'.

To ensure Mr Bloomberg is visible to local members of the party, his campaigners have erected mid-size billboards at several locations on the main island of Tutuila. No word on if the Bloomberg campaign is paying to post these billboards.

There are even small posters, placed on the back windows of cars, announcing Mike Bloomberg 2020 Mo Amerika Samoa - or Mike Bloomberg 2020 For American Samoa.

Mr Bloomberg's representatives also held a Teacher's Townhall meeting in Pago Pago on Friday in which educators and the public were invited to discuss educational issues in American Samoa.

I guess that when you have $60 billion and are in your upper 70s the strategy is spend it while you are here since you can't take it with you.

3. 50 state plus all territories is the strategy the eventual nominee should adopt.

They could use the infrastructure Bloomberg has already put in place.

nominee. He said he would do it for every candidate left except Sanders. He said that is because Sanders said he did not want help from Bloomberg.
