Texas Gov. Rick Perry (R) said Friday he is not shy about letting people know another run for the White House is a possibility.
“I don’t shy away from telling people running for president is an option for me in the future, but it’s not what I’m focused on,” Perry said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”
{mosads}Perry, who is serving his last term as governor, told CNN on Thursday he would likely make his decision to run by the summer of next year — or in about 18 months.
In that interview, he cautioned looking past the 2014 midterm elections would be a mistake.
The Texas governor’s White House bid in 2012 quickly faded after a number of missteps on the campaign trail and in the GOP primary debates.
