First things first: Ohio Gov. John Kasich wants you to know who he is.
The
Republican presidential candidate admits that he does not enjoy the
same name recognition as party frontrunner Donald Trump but says
popularity and outrageous statements should not dictate who reaches the
White House.
“My
greatest challenge, Katie, is really not against anybody else. My
greatest challenge is to become known. My greatest challenge is for
people to hear me, because they don’t,” Kasich said in a wide-ranging
interview with Yahoo Global News Anchor Katie Couric.
Nothing
was off the table Friday when Kasich, who has been struggling in the
polls, sat down with Couric to discuss Islamist militants, Middle East
refugees, his campaign and why Trump is a bully who is not prepared to
take on presumptive Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton or lead the
free world.
Kasich,
63, said that he dealt with many bullies growing up in the blue-collar
town of McKees Rocks outside Pittsburgh, so he was not scared when the
Trump campaign threatened to sue if a pro-Kasich super-PAC included any
false information or misrepresentations of his brand in advertisements.
