Zuckerberg for presidency?

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg says he's not running for president.
As the leader of a digital nation of nearly 1.8 billion, Zuckerberg already gets treated like a head of state. In recent years, speculation has grown that he might like to become one. Zuckerberg took his first significant step onto the political stage in 2013 when he launched Fwd.us, a political advocacy group to shape public policy on immigration. In April, he used his keynote at Facebook's annual developers conference to rebuke then Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, who had advocated building a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border and banning Muslims from entering the U.S. It was a significant departure for Zuckerberg.
Mark has clearly stated that he has no intentions running for any political office.
"I'm focused on building our community at Facebook and working on the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative," the limited liability corporation that oversees his and wife Dr. Priscilla Chan's philanthropic efforts, Zuckerberg said.
