We've had a lot of tech people run lately: Carly Fiorina (VP and Senate) and Meg Whitman (Senate). They lost costly races where they outspent their rivals. Mayor Bloomberg was a tech guy. Then again so was Ross Perot. He might not be a serious candidate, but John McAfee is running for President.
Of all of them, Mayor Bloomberg seems to be the best suited for the national stage. I respect that he was smart enough to see that Trump/Sanders/Bloomberg -> Bloomberg, Trump/Hillary/Bloomberg -> Trump, while Trump/Hillary -> Hillary. A lesser person would have run anyway for the ego.
