BIll Gates gets political


Normally, we here at Think Billions, we don't get involved in politics. We talk business and celebrity billionaires. Things like that.

Exception: last year we questioned Michael Bloomberg, the King/Mayor of New York City, and his incredibly insensitive treatment of pregnant women during his not so recent past.

So we find ourselves bending our reporting policy stance once again regarding politics in the interest of informing our fans and just plain fun.

The fun part is that - Bill Gates is running for political office! Yes, Bill Gates! But, not that Bill Gates. Bill Gates of Phoenix Arizona is running for Phoenix City Council. We will let you know how he does. And, no, he is not related to that Bill Gates.

Good luck to Bill Gates of Phoenix!
