Ethan Sonneborn, 14, is appearing on the Democratic primary ballot later this month and now that school is out he is campaigning just about every day — driven by his parents.
Bernie Sanders, Howard Dean, and Barack Obama are his political heroes.
Sonneborn told Seven Days that the toughest thing about running for high office is “finding a way to show voters that I’m a candidate with practical, progressive ideas who just happens to be 14, instead of a 14-year-old who just happens to have practical, progressive ideas.”

Politicians were originally designed to be people who worked hard gaining wisdom and knowledge for most of their life and now choose to apply that to public office. A 14 year old has no knowledge or wisdom and certainly does not know the meaning of working for anything. Ridiculous. There needs to be minimum age limits on all public office positions.
Is Vermont making up there own min age to run for office ?
How can a 14 yo run for this ???? Then again Bernie and his Snowflakes act like 10 yo.
NO MINIMUM AGE LOL good you deserve a kid to run your crap state into the ground I hope he gets all the vote maybe he will have time for you after playing PlayStation for 12 hrs lol.
Seems about right
