Speaking at the Aventura Turnberry Jewish Center in Miami on Sunday afternoon, Democratic presidential candidate Mike Bloomberg displayed his famously independent streak to a friendly crowd. “I do know you’re used to seeing New Yorkers here in southern Florida,” he joked in remarks prepared for delivery. “I just hope all of you you voted for the correct mayoral candidate in 2001, 2005 and 2009.

But I am the only one who doesn’t want to turn America into a kibbutz.”
