In a recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=pyeYpYdcS1k\">interview<\/a>, he said it\u2019s time to restore integrity in the nation\u2019s capitol by electing responsible officials.<\/p>\n<p>The candidate added, inflation is out of control and America\u2019s national security is at risk amid the loss of public faith in U.S. government. He stressed the recent gubernatorial election in Virginia shows Americans are finally realizing the political system is broken and it needs to be fixed.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cWe\u2019re going to lose the freedom that we have fought and died for, so many people have fought and died for those freedoms we have,\u201d Walker stated. \u201cAnd right now, we\u2019re going to lose it if we don\u2019t put the right people in office. Right now, we can\u2019t have government control, government mandate, government this, government that \u2014 we can\u2019t have that. This is not the country that our people died for.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The Republican, who seeking to unseat Democrat Raphael Warnock in the 2022 midterms, said he\u2019s ready to restore balance and do away with the stigma of race negatively polarizing everyone.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cThere shouldn\u2019t be any color in right wrong; there shouldn\u2019t be any color in law, Walker stated. \u201cThat\u2019s the reason I said I want to go to Washington because I want to remove that, I want to remove this\u2026whatever color you are there\u2019s no color in what\u2019s right and what\u2019s wrong.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The Republican also weighed in on Democrat Stacey Abrams second bid for governor of Georgia, while questioning whether she is an ideal candidate that will portray the state faithfully.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cStacey Abrams had done so much, so many things in the state of Georgia, but there\u2019s some celebrities coming in,\u201d he noted. \u201cBut do she represent what Georgia values are?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Walker concluded, the American people must stand up to government overreach and the abuse of power and say enough is enough.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">I&#8217;m running for U.S. Senate because I love this country and I love my home state of GEORGIA! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/MKrqvIQDsl\">https:\/\/t.co\/MKrqvIQDsl<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/JJoJepwW06\">pic.twitter.com\/JJoJepwW06<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Herschel Walker (@HerschelWalker) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/HerschelWalker\/status\/1450858334463082502?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 20, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/donald-trump-democrats-will-use-liz-cheney-and-then-destroy-her\/\">Donald Trump: Democrats Will Use Liz Cheney And Then Destroy Her<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FILE \u2013 In this Sept. 25, 2021, file photo Senate candidate Herschel Walker speaks during former President Donald Trump\u2019s Save America rally in Perry, Ga.
