    Miami Mayor Francis Suarez files to run for president in 2024
    BY JULIA MANCHESTER - 06/14/23 5:14 PM ET

    Miami Mayor Francis Suarez (R) filed to run for president on Wednesday, becoming the latest candidate to jump into a Republican primary field dominated by former President Trump.

    The Miami mayor had been teasing a campaign announcement for weeks.

    A pro-Suarez super PAC, SOS America, put out a video earlier this week touting Suarez’s record as mayor of Miami.

    Suarez is the third Florida resident to join the growing Republican primary, including Trump and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who has trailed in second place in most polling.

    Suarez is the first Hispanic candidate to jump into the GOP field this cycle, representing a critical constituency for the party. But the Miami mayor faces an uphill climb to the nomination, given the current state of the polls and his relatively low national name ID.

    Miami mayor bemoans Trump dominating news cycle: ‘We have to look at other options’

    https://thehill.com/homenews/campai...-news-cycle-we-have-to-look-at-other-options/

    excerpt:

    Miami Mayor Francis Suarez (R) said Sunday that former President Trump is only ahead in the polls because he dominates the news cycle.

    "Well, he's a wide lead because he dominates the conversation," the mayor told Maria Bartiromo on Fox News' "Sunday Morning Futures." "And I think the press — and you know I don't want to fault the press — but that's all they want to talk about."

    "If we keep talking about the former president, frankly, I'm sure he's sitting at home in Mar-a-Lago smiling and laughing because they're giving him the nomination," he added. "I think that we have to change the conversation in this country. We have to look at other options."

    The South Florida Republican cuban/hispanics absolutely represent the other 96% of the latinos in the rest of the country.

    If those other guys were behind them, the Bay of Pigs might have worked.
