He claims to have served in both the Air Force and the Army during separate periods and that he left the Army nine months ago as a specialist.
“I was active duty with the Army for two-and-a-half years, and I was also stationed at Shaw Air Force Base for a while,” he said.
As an unemployed veteran trying to find work and living with his parents, Greene said he was motivated to run for one of South Carolina’s two Senate seats to help “Get South Carolina Back to Work.”
The phrase serves as his campaign slogan, he said.
“We need to get our priorities straight,” he said. “We spend more money in this state on inmates than we do on our students. My focus is on jobs, education and justice in the judicial system. Those are my main issues.”
While he didn’t elaborate on any specific ideas, he said focusing on these issues will help him rally against DeMint in November. He said he hoped the state and national party leadership would help his campaign, which he claims to have funded entirely out of his pocket.
“I’ve done this all 100 percent on my own,” he said, noting that he paid the filing fee from his own money as well. “It has been important for me to do this, to be one of the many jobless South Carolinians and have a voice in getting the state back on track.”
Officials with DeMint’s campaign had no comment about Greene’s win, but noted DeMint has raised more than $3.5 million for his campaign to keep his seat, which he first won in 2004.
Greene must still be confirmed as the nominee when votes are certified at 3 p.m. Friday at the State Election Commission in Columbia. He has yet to file with the secretary of the Senate in Washington, D.C., or with the Federal Election Commission, steps that are required by law.
he doesnt have Iraqi campain medal, Afganistan campain medal..or global war on terrorism expeditionary medal..SOOOO? They didn’t send him. I know of three Green Berets from 1969 to 1972 who spent their time at Bad Tolz (?) in Germany. Didn’t get sent to VN, because they weren’t needed.
