Union leader: Bloomberg can go all the way

The head of a major teacher's union said she thinks that former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg could win the Democratic presidential nomination.

American Federation of Teachers (AFT) President Randi Weingarten told journalist Greta Van Susteren in an interview that she thinks Bloomberg has a chance of "going all the way" in the November general election, beating Donald Trump.

Weingarten was also asked about candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), a regular critic of Bloomberg and billionaires like him, and whether she thinks the lawmaker could win the nomination while still be registered as an independent. Weingarten then said that she thinks both Sanders and Bloomberg are in contention.

I just saw online somewhere that Bloomberg is considering Hillary as his VP/Running Mate. Anyone heard of this yet, or is it just some Internet Meme?
