And the second is the importance of family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Elder has long addressed the absence of fathers impacting black American families nationwide. He became a conservative radio icon known as the \u201cSage of South Central\u201d by speaking his mind about such topics \u2014 and steering the national conversation toward those matters.<\/p>\n<p>According to Elder, 70% of black children grow up without a father, while 40% of all children in America experience fatherlessness in the home.<\/p>\n<p>The National Fatherhood Initiative <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fatherhood.org\/father-absence-statistic\">reported<\/a> U.S. Census Bureau statistics showing 18.4 million children \u2014 or 1 in 4 kids \u2014 grow up without a biological, step, or adoptive father in the home.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is the number one issue facing America,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Elder <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/the-elder-statesman-conservative-icon-mulling-2024-presidential-run\">told<\/a> The Daily Wire earlier this year that the breakdown of the nuclear family could be traced back to the creation of the welfare state, which he claimed \u201chas incentivized women to marry the government . . . and men to abandon their financial and more responsibility.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd we don\u2019t talk about that enough and talk about some of the symptoms, whether it\u2019s crime, whether it\u2019s support outcomes in school, we don\u2019t talk about the genesis, and the genesis is that in 1955, 25% of black kids entered the world without a father married to the mother,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The conservative radio host has previously spoken this year about running for president.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this year, Elder met with potential donors from Iowa and New Hampshire pending a possible candidacy.<\/p>\n<p>He told the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.desmoinesregister.com\/story\/news\/politics\/2022\/09\/17\/larry-elder-considers-2024-presidential-run-conservative-radio-host-republican-candidates\/10416418002\/\">Des Moines Register<\/a> last September that he has floated the idea of running for president in 2024 even if former President Donald Trump announced his third bid for office, who has since made his announcement.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m running for president,\u201d Elder said. \u201cAnd I\u2019m not running against anybody on the Republican side \u2014 I\u2019m running against Joe Biden if he runs, or Kamala Harris if she runs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Elder further noted to Fox 11 on Saturday that Trump has a \u201csmaller and shrinking base.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA smaller percentage of the public has said they want him to run,\u201d Elder said. \u201cA greater percentage has said they want Ron DeSantis to run.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not going to be a coronation,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Elder previously ran to replace California Democratic Gov.
