Roseanne Barr wants to be president

Sacramento - Actress-comedian Roseanne Barr's name is on California's primary ballot as a Green Party candidate for president.

Secretary of State Debra Bowen announced on Monday that Barr is among 24 candidates she intends to place on the June 5 ballot. An officially certified list will be released March 29.

A news release says Barr is among three candidates for the Green Party presidential nomination.

Barr released a statement last week saying she's a longtime supporter of the Green Party and she looks forward to working with people who share her values. She says the two major parties aren't serving the American people.

The Green Party will select a presidential nominee at a convention in July.
