Republican Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina launched a presidential exploratory committee Wednesday morning.

“I will never back down in defense of the conservative values that make America exceptional. And that’s why I’m announcing my exploratory committee for president of the United States,” Scott said in a new video.

Scott – the only Black Republican in the Senate – has been testing the waters for months. Since setting off on a listening tour in February focused on “Faith in America,” he’s made frequent visits to Iowa.


He’s scheduled to hold events in the early voting state on Wednesday.

“I’ve been doing a lot of thinking the past few months,” Scott wrote in a Tuesday night email to his supporters teasing a Wednesday morning announcement on Fox. “I’ve been thinking about my faith. I’ve been thinking about the future of our country. And I’ve been thinking about the Left’s plan to ruin America.”

I would encourage him, I do not think that he can get the nomination for president but he could be a very solid pick for VP

Nothing seeing that I didn't any statement about that at all. You said he would make a great VP, I asked whose VP?

Back in the olden times, the VP was picked after the Presidential candidate was nominated. Usually at the convention.

And originally the VEEP was the person who came in second, ensuring a check/balance at the very tippy-top of an Administration.
