Former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson announced a 2024 presidential bid, becoming the fourth major Republican candidate to make such an announcement.

“I’m convinced that people want leaders that appeal to the best of America, and not simply appeal to our worst instincts,” Hutchinson told ABC News on Sunday. “I am going to be running. And the reason, as I’ve traveled the country for six months, I hear people talk about the leadership of our country. ... I believe I can be that kind of leader for the people of America,” he added.
