American Candidate

July 30, 2004

This weekend, Showtime kicks off a ten-episode series that aims to select a "people's candidate." The contest winner will claim $200,000 in cash and a national platform from which, producers say, the victor could mount an actual write-in campaign for president. New Hampshire Public Radio's Josh Rogers filed this report from his home state, where part of American Candidate was taped earlier this summer.
