Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker Enters 2016 White House Race Monday July 13,2015

Wisconsin's Republican Governor Scott Walker entered the White House race on Monday July 13,2015 after weeks of excited anticipation among the party’s hardcore conservatives.

To those still counting, he is the 15th Republican in the fray so far, with one more expected, for the party nomination, which will be decided through primaries; to five of Democrats.

“I am running for president to fight and win for the American people,” Walker, 47 said in a video posted online. “Without sacrificing our principals, we won three elections in four years in a blue state. We did it by leading. Now, we need to do the same thing for America. It’s not too late. We can make our country great again.”

Scott Walker is a two-term governor who successfully faced down a recall election in 2012 — that’s why three elections — over his fight against the state’s public sector unions.
