Graham Veysey on Conklin and Company

Posted: Updated:

He's never been elected to public office. Now he's taking on two long time incumbents, hoping to pull off what by his own admission would be a monumental upset.

Graham Veysey, a political newcomer and video production company owner, appears this week on Conklin and Company. He says one of his top priorities if elected would be to address the debt crisis. The national deficit is now at some $15 trillion and growing by the hour.

Veysay says, "If we don't do anything about it we are literally jeopardizing investments we want to make in economic recovery ... And education ...Environment and energy... That's why I'm running standing up so people realize the fiscal crisis that we're in."

Also on Conklin and Company this week, Bill Hormann's entire sit down interview with GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney. Don't miss Conklin and Company Sunday at 11 AM right here on 13abc.
