Rick Perry: Virginia ballot process has structural problems

Perry says it’s much easier in Texas to get on the ballot than Virginia, given that you can either pay $5k or collect 300 signatures. And he says that he’s filing suit against Virginia because he doesn’t want Perry voters to be disenfranchised.

He also mentions having parades for our military returning from the battlefield. I hadn’t heard that one yet and as interesting as it sounds, I’m not sure that it will push anyone over the top for him.
