Chris Christie tells Michael Shear how he can reconcile not running for president with his increasing focus on national issues.
"What I'm trying to do is inspire a conversation among those people who want to be president.... it doesn't mean you can't have opinions on what the national issues should be just because you're not willing to run for president yourself.
I think that's a false choice. I could still be part of a vigorous, national debate and weigh in with my views on those things without having to offer myself for the presidency."
