Former Sen. Mike Gravel of Alaska, 88, has filed to run for president -- but apparently has no intention of winning, the Democrat's campaign team told Fox News on Tuesday.
Gravels Twitter account posted, It. Is. On. Sen. Mike Gravel has officially filed to run for president. Our only aim is pushing the field left by appearing in the Democratic debates. Donate as little as you like, but help us get to the necessary 65k donors! Official launch is April 8.
The announcement came a month after college-age fans eager to push the party further to the left started boosting the longshot candidate's Twitter cred. Gravel has not run for president since 2008, and he hasnt been a senator since 1981.

Gravel ran for President about 40 years ago. Thought he had died.
Maybe I should read the story first but the Sen. Mike Gravel I knew was a leftist prick and coward.
To self. It is the same leftist prick who was senator and is now just an old doddering fool (wait - he was always a doddering fool even when he was young).
For you kiddies at FR,look up the Gravel Amendment and see what a leftist Democrat fool or traitor sounds like.
89 years old, and a demagogue from the Demagogic Party, he’s dropped out. Which is news to over 300 million US citizens, who’d never heard of him and/or didn’t know he had been running.

WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR?
$5,519,969,298,497
spent on regime change wars since 2001.
That’s enough to cover the full cost of tuition for every person wishing to enroll in community college in the United States.
The cacophony is just not loud enough.
