A single national primary would favor the big day donor class candidates like Jeb.

YES!!!ALL primaries on ONE day.

Then say goodbye to anybody but the establishment candidate with the big donors.

They'd be the only candidates with sufficient money to campaign in a national primary.

All primaries in one day means the vote gets split among umpteen candidates, with the nominee thus being more likely to be somebody that most people don't like.

Better would be to have a rule that, after Super Tuesday, anybody who has not gotten more than 10% of the aggregate vote needs to drop out, and after the end of March, all but the top 2 drop out.
