Lou Dobbs Considers a Presidential Run in 2012

Former CNN anchor Lou Dobbs has acknowledged he is considering a run for the White House in 2012. Dobbs addressed the issue in a radio interview on Fred Thompsons show.

Fred Thompson: Lou, one way to have a voice — youve already had a big one, but another way to have a voice is in public service. Have you given any thought to perhaps running for president?

Lou Dobbs: Im talking — yes is the answer. And Im going to be talking some more with some folks who want me to listen to them in the next few weeks. You know, I, so I just dont even what to tell you in terms of where Im leaning because right now Im fortunate to have a number of wonderful options. I do know this, Im going to have the best advice. I may make a terrible decision, but Im going to have great advice.

Lou Dobbs resigned from CNN earlier this month. A coalition of Latino groups recently led a campaign for his removal from CNN over his alleged anti-Latino bias in covering immigration reform.
