LAS VEGAS -- The son of former President Jimmy Carter has launched a Web site soliciting donations for a possible run for U.S. Senate.
Jack Carter, 58, called the site part of his "listening tour" designed to gauge support for a potential bid to challenge Sen. John Ensign, R-Nev.
"One of the things you listen for is how are people going to contribute," he said Tuesday.
It would be the Las Vegas investment consultant's first personal foray in politics. He previously campaigned for his father.
Carter said he will not officially announce his decision until after the first of the year, but he said response to the site, which was posted last week, was "excellent."
He does not have to disclose contributions until January.
The Web site includes a biography detailing the former president's oldest son's progression from "Navy brat" to peanut farm hand to business consultant. |
