I wonder if this is open to all 1,649 presidential candidates, or just 2 or 5? http://www.fec.gov/data/Form2Filer.do?format=html http://www.fec.gov/data/Form2F

On another note, I wonder if this has anything to do with Medium who has been positioning itself in Washington and C-suites as the "default place for people to go when they have ideas of consequence."

- hasenj 11y agoThere's something comical about that list of candidates. Why haven't heard of these guys before? Does this happen every year?
- jerf 11y agoAs far as I know, yes. For that matter, read your ballot carefully. There's more than just Republican and Democrat that make it to the final ballot. If nothing else you can pick up some terms to Google and learn about. Mostly for your intellectual curiosity, since generally the other parties manage to pick up little more than low-dozens of County Dogcatcher-level positions per election in the entire nation.
- ikeboy 11y agoSo if it's open to the whole list, then the cost to get access is effectively $5000.
- ki85squared 11y agoMaybe on paper, but the FEC makes it easy to get on that list without any proof of identity. There are tons of joke candidates, like Crawfish Crawfish.
