How does the New Hampshire Primary work, and what have been the craziest primaries in the Granite State? This video takes a look at the history of the New Hampshire Primary and its impact on Presidential Politics. The New Hampshire primary is unique for several reasons, and With the 2016 First-in-the-nation primary just around the corner, candidates like Benie Sanders, Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump, Marco Rubio, and many more will be zig zagging the rural northeastern state, pining for every last vote.

I start by examining two instances when the NH Primary actually served to bring down a President. Both Harry Truman and Lydon B Johnson resigned from the Presidential Primaries after New Hampshire. While both men were likely to drop at some point anyways, NH gave them both a stark image of the political herizon.
