The motto of this great state, South Carolina. But it might as well be the theme of my entire life. I am the son of a team mom. I was raised by grandparents, with a fourth grade and eighth grade education. I went to yale, i went to georgetown law school. I worked on capitol hill be right i worked for the private sector. Now im a candidate for United States senate. Excuse me if i pinch myself. I have lived the American Dream and spent my entire life fighting for others to make sure they do the same. We have been divided for too long. Too many folks here in South Carolina lack the opportunity to live the American Dream themselves. Tonight, you will probably hear from Lindsey Graham and he will scare you to vote for him. I hope tonight to inspire you to support me. Thank you, sir. Senator graham, you have one minute. Sen. Graham you have nothing to be afraid of. Thank you for tuning in. Thank you to everybody who has gotten me here. We live in difficult times. 2020 is the most incredible
About something so what i do in this book is i restore history to the subject of covert electoralinterference. I debunk as myth that this is confined to the 2016 election. I show how the soviet union interfered in elections during the postwar period and how they went toe to toe during the cold war, how russia is interfering in elections all over the world today and only then to do i 2 examine 2016 and its aftermath because at the moment russia is actively interfering in the 20 20 election and to me by restoring that history to Public Discourse and by preceding the fact that this is not all new we can prepare for and defend against this threat in a much more effective and comprehensive way. What is new about what russia is doing and what are they doing that theyve always done . Whats new here . I would say whats not new is the idea of russia covertly interfering in the us election area as i detail in the book russia targeted, the soviet union targeted americas 1960, 68 and 84 elections
