Related: About this forumSouth Carolinians Deserves So Much Better Than Lindsey Graham. They Deserve Dr. Annie Andrews - Glenn Kirschner
Lindsey Graham's name has become synonymous with "flip-flopping." He has proved over and over again that he stands for nothing, and is unwilling to fight for the people who most need a senator to fight for their rights.
Dr. Annie Andrews is a career pediatrician who is ready to represent AND fight for the rights of ALL South Carolinians. As Dr. Andrews says on her website, she's running for Senate "because kids and parents across the state are getting screwed by a system designed to work for the powerful, not the rest of us."
More about Annie: "Dr. Annie Andrews is a pediatrician and a mom, not a politician. Shes spent her entire career serving South Carolina familiesnot donors and lobbyistsand shes running for Senate because kids and parents across the state are getting screwed by a system designed to work for the powerful, not the rest of us.
After nearly two decades in childrens hospitals, Annie saw how Washingtons failures reach all the way into her exam room every day. Kids shot in their own neighborhoods. Parents forced to ration medication. Families unable to find mental health care. So she got involved in advocacy and policyand what she saw in the halls of power appalled her.
Special interests and lobbyists run the show, and regular people are getting left behind. But Annie isnt afraid of a fight. Shes taken on Big Pharma, fought for safer schools, and pushed to expand access to health care. She wont take a dime of corporate PAC moneyand shes not afraid to take on anyone whos sold out the people she serves.
That includes Lindsey Graham, the worst kind of Washington politician. Lindsey stands for nothing and does whatever the donors and lobbyists tell him, whether its slashing Medicaid, cutting food assistance for hungry children, or handing out tax breaks to billionaires.
So Annie is running against him. In the Senate, shell fight for every family to have the chance to raise their kids in safety and with dignity, with access to affordable care, quality public schools, and economic security.
Washington needs some healing. And Annie will fight with the same heart, grit, and dedication she brings to caring for her patients every single day.
Annie lives in Charleston with her three children, who attend public schools." - Glenn Kirschner - 07/20/2025.
