Sen. Lindsey Graham Hints at Possible 2016 Presidential Run

South Carolina's U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham hinted at a probable 2016 presidential run in a recent interview, saying he plans to enter the race because "the world is falling apart."

Graham said in a recent interview that he plans to announce whether he'll run on June 1.

"I'm running because I think the world is falling apart," Graham told "CBS This Morning" on Monday, adding that he's been "more right than wrong on foreign policy."

Graham, a Republican senator from South Carolina, has been a staunch critic to President Barack Obama's foreign policy.

The U.S. Senator added in the interview that he would encourage bipartisanship if elected to the U.S. presidency.

"I've been accused of working with Democrats too much. In my view Democrats and Republicans work together too little and I would try to change that if I got to be president," he said. "When it came to radical Islam, I would go after them before they come back here again."

Graham asserted his intent to destroy foreign terrorists over the weekend at the Iowa Republican Party's annual Lincoln Day Dinner, jokingly saying that anyone planning to join al Qaeda will be killed.

"If I'm president of the United States and you're thinking about joining al-Qaida or ISIL — anybody thinking about that?" Graham asked the laughing audience, as reported by NPR. "I'm not gonna call a judge. I'm gonna call a drone and we're gonna kill you."

Graham joins a growing list of Republicans who have already joined the 2016 presidential race, including Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, among others.
