Former Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper delivers a fiery defense of his pragmatic approach to politics in the first rally of his presidential campaign.
Former Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper responds to questions during a news conference in the brewpub that he established before his foray into politics Wednesday, March 6, 2019, in lower downtown Denver. Hickenlooper will appear at a sendoff event Thursday in Denver's Civic Center Park to launch his campaign for the Democratic nomination for the presidency in 2020.
Hickenlooper, who announced his presidential bid Monday via video, hopes to stand out in a crowded Democratic presidential field of national figures making big, liberal proposals for “Medicare for all,” universal child care and high taxes on the wealthy. He’ll travel to Iowa Friday for a two-day swing through the early state, on which he is pinning his hopes in his underdog presidential bid.
Hickenlooper’s unusual style has dominated Colorado politics for much of the past two decades. He jumped out of an airplane to support one ballot measure related to the state budget and rappelled down a high rise to raise money to fight cancer. He disavowed negative ads and frustrated some Democrats with his reluctance to engage in partisan battles.
