John Kasich (R), who has not closed the door to running as an independent in 2020, said he, too, is “very seriously” considering a run for president, though he offered no timetable.</p> <p data-elm-loc="16">Appearing on “This Week,” Kasich said “we need different leadership, there isn’t any question about it.” He said he saw merit in running even if the chances of winning were slim, as long as he could “make a good showing” that would “send a message that can disrupt the political system in this country.”</p> <p data-elm-loc="17">“All options are on the table for me,” he said. “You obviously want to have some sort of a practical opportunity, but you want to be able to make a statement.”</p> <p data-elm-loc="18">Kasich said that if Trump were to win the Republican nomination and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) won the Democratic nomination, there might be a window for a bipartisan ticket to claim moderate voters.</p> <p data-elm-loc="19">“That would be something that I would talk to you about offline and get your view,” he said to host George Stephanopoulos.</p> <p data-elm-loc="20">Kasich said he likes Colorado Gov.
