Alexander comments on Graham contemplating run for President

South Carolina’s U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham made it official Thursday that he is considering a run for president, creating an exploratory committee that allows him to start raising money. State Senator Thomas Alexander wishes Graham well and feels he is going about the decision the right way. “Well I wish Lindsey well, obviously that will be up to him but I think he is doing it the right way of evaluating that and then will make decision at the appropriate time. He is serving the state of South Carolina well so I wish him well as he evaluates whether he will be running for President.” Graham has dubbed his new presidential exploratory committee, “Security Through Strength.” According to a press release from Graham’s office, this committee will fund the infrastructure and operations allowing Graham to travel the country listening to Americans’ concerns, and gauging support for a potential presidential candidacy.
