Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear was asked about his political future, and his tenure as governor ended in 2027. Beshear made an appearance on CNN on Monday night and was asked about any plans for his 2028 presidential campaign. “We need to heal this country. We can't continue to do that anymore. We need McCarthy's moments and we can come back together. The country, I'll consider it,” Beshear said. “But if there were other people, I would serve them because at the end of the day, I care more about the United States than any title I could have.” Beshear's second term as governor in Kentucky ended in late 2027 and he was not eligible to run for governor again due to period restrictions.

Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear was asked about his political future, and his tenure as governor ended in 2027.
Beshear made an appearance on CNN Monday night and was asked about any plans for his 2028 presidential campaign.
“When we take the current presidency, we need to do more than just go beyond Donald Trump,” Beshear said. “We need to heal this country. We can never continue to ‘we with them’ continue to do that. We need McCarthy’s moments and we can return.
Beshear, 47, has not yet promised to run, but said he would seriously consider it if the people around him believe he can successfully take on the role.
“If my family thought I could help heal the country, I would consider it,” Beshear said. “But if there were other people, I would serve them because in the end I care more about the United States than any title I could have.”
Beshear's second term as governor in Kentucky ended in late 2027 and he is not eligible to run for governor again due to term restrictions.
Andy Beshear, the son of former Kentucky Governor Steve Beshear, beat current Governor Matt Bevin in 2019 and later defeated Republican challenger Daniel Cameron to win reelection in 2023.
