Former U.S. Senator Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania, whose political career was derailed in 2006 when he lost a re-election bid, today officially entered the race for next year’s Republican presidential nomination.
“People have understood that something is wrong,” said Santorum, 53, in his home area of Somerset County, Pennsylvania. President Barack Obama is “devaluing our dollar and he’s devaluing our other currency, our moral currency,” he said.
