Tom Steyer bids to succeed Trump

California billionaire Tom Steyer made another move on Tuesday toward launching a potential 2020 presidential bid with an announcement that he’s planning to return to early-voting South Carolina next month for an event in Charleston.
In a news release published by NBCNews, the wealthy investor said that he plans to talk about the importance of equal voting
That’s one of what he calls the “five fundamental rights” for which Democrats should advocate ahead of the next presidential election and that “should be at the core” of the party’s platform.
On Tuesday, Steyer said he would place a full-page ad in USA Today and Gannett newspapers across the country to outline his proposed five rights, which also include clean air and water, health, the right to learn and a living wage.
“These rights are fundamental to our shared belief in the promise of America, a promise of the freedom and power to pursue our dreams and earn a fair share of this country’s vast wealth,” Steyer said.
“A hostile takeover of our democracy by large corporations and their enablers in politics has eroded that promise, and we must act to reclaim that power and put it back in the hands of the American people.”
