South Florida mayor Wayne Messam releases video announcing his presidential campaign

Wayne Messam, the mayor of Miramar, said in a video released Thursday morning that he’s running for president.

“The promise of America belongs to all of us. That’s why I’m going to be running for president. To be your champion,” Messam said in the video.

He formally kicks off the campaign on Saturday, with a rally at Florida Memorial University in Miami Gardens.

He joins a crowded field of Democrats seeking their party’s presidential nomination, with candidates virtually guaranteed.

“Every day people are graduating from universities with crippling debt stifling their opportunity for financial mobility; that is what’s broken with this country,” he said in the video.
