- Share via
Alan Keyes, a Republican whose two previous runs for president ended in failure, is making a third try for the White House.
The Maryland conservative announced on his website that he had filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission to make his candidacy official. He joins a crowded Republican field of nine candidates and is scheduled to participate tonight at a debate involving lesser-known candidates in Florida.
Keyes, a State Department official under President Reagan, made unsuccessful presidential runs in 1996 and 2000.
