your question of who else, that is why you're hearing things about howard schultz, ceo of starbucks,he get into it? senator warner from virginia. john kerry is looking in the mirror, i tried it 12 years ago, why not? i came close to it first time. maybe elizabeth warren is reconsidering. david: i have another one, our buddy neil cavuto suggested that in fact al gore might be getting into the race. have you heard that one? >> i haven't. boy, my goodness. kerry and gore. whoa. david: that would be fun. give us a lot to talk about. >> this is a family station so i will just laugh. david: steve, thank you very much. we'll leave it at that thank you, steve forbes. >> thank you. david: catch steve and myself on on fox, this and every saturday, on the fox news channel 11:00 a.m. eastern time, every saturday. we look forward to seeing you there. cheryl: all right. neil caveto, cavuto. cavuto. cheryl: you will never live that down. don't even go there, buddy. david: listen with a name like asman you can call me anything you want. cheryl: we heard that one. few other stories on our radar. new

more "varney & company" just two minutes away. >> howard schultz runs starbucks.e all of this talk about him running for president? john kerry is secretary of state. why is his name popping up again now? he lost the presidential election but george bush in 2004. and joe biden, well he just won 13% of the vote in a new poll even though he has not declared for the presidency. what is going on? it seems like suddenly the floodgates have been open to any and all comers. deep trouble for hillary clinton, that's what's going on. among democrats there's a realization that her campaign is flowndering that her nomination is not setting common crete are. a moment the politician looks vulnerable competition moving in and hillary clinton is vulnerable shows her losing ten points worth of support in a month. i think she's losing ground for the same reason that donald trump is gaining ground. people are tired of same old same old. nothing gets done and same faces and names appear year after year. clinton name may be as big a negative as bush. of course, it doesn't help that hil
