Tell him to worry about 2017 first! He'll probably win by for lack of a strong enough opponent, but what achievements could he possibly point to? Guiliani and Bloomberg both had strong records as mayor of a city of 8 million people to run off of. De Blasio does not have anything. The progressives merely tolerate him. The conservatives loathe him.

Given his clear propensity for "progressive" self-marketing at a global level, though, I wouldn't rule it out. But it'd a joke candidacy.
One could substitute 1969 for 2017 and Wagner and LaGuardia for Giuliani and Bloomberg, and you'd be talking about John Lindsay.

Universal pre-K. A tale of two Americas, just like how it is a tale of two New Yorks.

You mean Cuomo's pre-K program?

DeBlasio is kind of a joke in New York, right?

He could win South Carolina, especially with black voters.

If his primary opponents included Booker and Harris, de Blasio could still claim to be the blackest candidate in the race, since he'd be the only candidate with a black wife.

LOL. Kamala Harris's husband definitely doesn't give the impression of being particularly glamorous: https://www.venable.com/douglas-c-emhoff/
