Lincoln Chafee ends Democratic bid for president Democratic presidential hopeful Lincoln Chafee announced Friday that he is withdrawing from the race, ending a bid that had failed to gain any traction.
Chafee, a former governor and U.S. senator from Rhode Island, used an appearance in Washington at a Democratic National Committee forum on women’s leadership to make his announcement.
Chafee bowed out with a plea for “an end to the endless wars and the beginning of a new era for the United States and humanity.”
“Do we want to be remembered as a bomber of weddings and hospitals?” Chafee said. “Or do we want to be remembered as peacemakers, as pioneers of a more harmonious world? Did he ever have a chance?
