Howard Schultz will announce Wednesday several specific promises and priorities he intends to uphold if elected president, members of his would-be campaign told NBC News.

Schultz will promise not to nominate a Supreme Court justice unless he or she can be confirmed by two-thirds of the Senate, and he will vow not to sign any legislation that does not have bipartisan support.Schultz will also commit to assembling a diverse cabinet of Democrats, Republicans and independents, and one that has a greater share of women than that of any previous president.

Schultz's pledges are his first attempt to offer a specific outline of what his presidency would be, as opposed to what it would not be. Until now, he has run on an aggressive critique of the two-party system but offered little in the way of specifics. Schultz's presidential ambitions have been widely criticized by Democrats who fear that his bid would end up helping President Donald Trump retain control of the White House.

Who cares?

True definition of a non-starter.

run Howard run

If the nation underperforms, he'll gut us and sell us to China or Germany!

He can say whatever he wants. If he runs, he'll help Trump win again. I don't trust his promise to not run if he'd be a spoiler that will help Trump be reelected. He's another giant narcissist in vein of Bernie & Trump, only cares about himself. Poor excuse 4 not running as Dem!

Howard who?

Stop it!! Quit feeding this man's ego! He's the new Trump

Who?

Go away HowardSchultz

Looks like shit to me

I would throw a tomato 🍅

He does NOT need to run!!!

At least he is a moderate. Too bad he had to run away from the New Socialist Party to run.

Just go away Jill Stein

WHO THE HELL IS HOWARD SCHULTZ!!!!!

Please run, oh pleeeeaassseeeeee run and destroy the socialists Democrats agenda

Nobody cares. Go away.

Something tells me if Coward 'I was Born A Poor Black Child' Schultz runs, he will get more free media time than all other Dem candidates combined. He's the medias choice.

Howard who?

Don't bother Schultzy.

Promise 1: Make sure the poors know access to health care is something you earn not a human right Promise 2: Continue to entrench the idea that gov't handouts to the underclass is socialism but handouts and tax breaks to rich people is not

I have zero interest in Howard Schultz.

With all do respect I am gonna pass ....

sticktocoffee

Go away.

“several specific promises and priorities” - were those HowardSchultz’s VERY OWN WORDS? 😂

Who cares🙄

Free caffeine for all.

I'm going to mute msnbc for promoting shitty shultz

I don't want another businessman as president.

I thought his name was Howard Starbucks?!?

Schulz, stay out. You have no experience in govt., and we've all seen the lousy mess that can cause in a president.

Doesn’t look like anything to me.

Howard Schultz on building the Starbucks brand: 'I know a little bit about marketing'Asked about how he would market himself as a presidential candidate Schultz said: 'I have not officially said that I am running for president. If you were going to give me credit, you'd have to say that I know a little bit about building a brand.' Yeah, well, Trump marketed his brand -- and then himself as a candidate in 2016 -- and look what has happened. Don't need another marketer as POTUS, that's for darn sure. Great! Stay in your element and leave politics to people with a clue. CNBC, why are you always misleading people. How can everything be horrible on friday and wonderful on monday, while nothing changed, except another Boeing going down, Germany figures down, Brexit likely to be a no-deal Brexit, etc. You have to live with your lies, not me.
