Short Interview with Presidential Candidate Darryl Perry

As part of Wikinews’ monthly series on the 2016 presidential election, I briefly interviewed write-in presidential candidate Darryl Perry.

On September 29, writer and former 2016 Libertarian Party (LP) presidential candidate Darryl Perry, the newly-elected chair of the Libertarian Party of New Hampshire (LPNH), announced the creation of a write-in campaign for president across several states. In a press release, he stated three goals for his run: “(1) to run the most libertarian presidential campaign in history; (2) to proclaim the ideas of liberty as boldly and as often as possible; and (3) to give as many people as possible the opportunity to vote for an actual libertarian in November.” Wikinews reached out to Perry to discuss the campaign.

Wikinews interviews Christopher Hill, Republican Party presidential candidate

The following was originally published on Wikinews January 6, 2015.

Air Force veteran and airline pilot Christopher V. Hill of New Hampshire took some time to talk with Wikinews about his campaign for the Republican Party’s 2016 presidential nomination.

Hill served in Operation Desert Storm, flying about fifty combat missions. Shortly after the war, he returned to civilian life, working as a loader and then a pilot for the United Parcel Service. In 2010, he organized the “Pilots and Patriots Defending the Constitution” ahead of that year’s midterm elections.  Hill ran his first campaign for president in 2012, seeking the Republican nomination.

Lost Vermin Supreme Interview Uncovered

It was late December 2011.  I sat at my computer, watching the live stream of the lesser-known Republican and Democratic presidential candidates forum.  My only interest was as a citizen journalist for Wikinews,  covering the candidates the mainstream media chose to ignore. I did not expect anything out of the ordinary.

As the Democratic Party forum commenced, I noticed a bearded man dressed in green with a rubber boot on his head take the stage. I couldn’t help but laugh.  I recognized this man, having attempted earlier in the year to remove his Wikipedia entry as a frivolous candidate.  His name was Vermin Supreme, the “friendly fascist,”
