http://fortune.com/2015/08/03/starbucks-ceo-president-hillary-clinton/ Howard Schultz is the current CEO of Starbucks, and is being urged by close friends to run against Hillary. Here's a rundown of the things he's done: - Turned Starbucks into a global empire and has made Seattle the butt of jokes about coffee - Created a hilariously bad "Race Together" campaign telling baristas to talk about race - Former owner of the Seattle Supersonics, sold them to Clay Bennett who famously moved them to OKC - As owner of the Sonics, he would give Sonics employees $5 gift cards as a Christmas gift. This is significant because those had to be custom-made, since the lowest amount of money you can put on a gift card for Starbucks is $10 - On the plus side, he's put forth gay marriage as a priority for the company and had the company embrace it. He even yelled at shareholders who asked him not to politicize coffee What would you like to see from President Schultz? An espresso machine in every house? A Starbucks in every residential neighborhood? All professional sports teams shipped overseas?

But Hillary Clinton already represents big business. I think what these people are looking for is a Republican.
