    Read excerpt

    Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly says he still hasn’t decided whether or not to run for president in 2028, but reiterated that he’s giving it serious consideration. “I’m not gonna decide until after this election, because I do really believe we need to be focused on this,” Kelly said last week under questioning at the Atlantic Festival in New York City. “But I’m thinking about it.
