An aide to former New York Gov. George Pataki confirms to ABC News he is the latest possible 2016 prospect to launch a PAC.

Titled the We the People, Not Washington PAC, he will use the funds as other potential presidential candidates do, to travel around the country, testing out a possible presidential bid.

This move was first reported in the New York Times, and if these presidential flirtations sound familiar, Pataki acknowledges it, telling the Times, “Every four years you have the Olympics, you have the World Cup, and you have George Pataki in New Hampshire talking about running for president.”
