Primary Faces: Anyone Can Grow Up to Run for President [VIDEO]

The New Hampshire Institute of Politics hosted a presidential candidates' forum on Dec. 19 for lesser-known candidates appearing on the New Hampshire Primary ballot on Jan. 10.

These candidates run the gamut, from smart and earnest to sarcastic and eccentric. What do they have in common? A desire to have their voice heard–and a belief that, in America, anyone can still grow up to run for president.

To qualify for the New Hampshire Primary, a candidate must meet the standard constitutional clause requirements and pay Secretary of State Bill Gardner $1,000 cash or certified check.

Appearing in this Patch video are: Joe Story, Bear Betzler, Randy Crow, Benjamin Linn, Hugh Cort, John Davis, Michael J. Meehan, Christopher V. Hill, Ed Cowan, Bob Greene, Ed O'Donnell, and Vermin Supreme.
