John James: As the World Becomes a More Dangerous Place, We Need Combat Veterans in the Senate

‘This is serious business’

EXCERPT:

JAMES: "Great point. At West Point, we have a number of captains and majors and lieutenant colonels who are more seasoned who have been preparing their entire careers to lead us into combat. As we come out as lieutenants, we look to these men and women to lead us effectively. After having that background, they understood the groundswell of terror that was coming around the world. This is a dangerous place. And as the world becomes a more and more dangerous place, we need combat veterans on the floor of the U.S. Senate who understand how to keep Americans safe because they have done it before. This is serious business. So I’m prepared to do what I can to continue my service to the nation and to continue my service to my state, and it’s an outstanding obligation and honor."
