Julian Castro Says He's Likely To Run For President In 2020

Former Housing and Urban Development Secretary and San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro says he's likely to run for president in 2020.  Castro made the comments in an interview with Rolling Stone that was published Tuesday night.  Castro said he would make a final decision after November but that he has a strong vision for the country and he believes it's headed in the wrong direction.  Castro served as HUD Secretary during the Obama administration.  He said a bruising primary fight with other potential candidates such as former Vice President Joe Biden and Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren would be cathartic for the party.  He said they need to go through that to get over 2016.
