Zuckerberg says he is not running for office

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is seeking to throw water on speculation of a presidential bid, saying he is not running for public office.
In a Facebook post, Zuckerberg said he made it his personal challenge this year to visit every state he hasn’t spent time in previously to “learn about people’s hopes and challenges, and how they’re thinking about their work and communities.”
“Some of you have asked if this challenge means I’m running for public office. I’m not,” he wrote in the post.
“My biggest takeaway so far is that our relationships shape us more than we think — how we consider opportunities, how we process information, and how we form habits,” he wrote.
“There is a lot of discussion about inequality, but one under-looked dimension of inequality is in the makeup of our social networks.”
