The Republican Primary process is FUBAR.
Here’s the way to do it.
1. Primaries are in the order of states where Republicans did best in the last General Election. The whole process is to take less than two months.
2. No more than three candidates, to be chosen by a committee.
3. No debating between the candidates, win on your own merits, not by tearing down the other candidates, and providing fodder for our political enemies.
“The Republican Primary process is FUBAR. Here’s the way to do it......”
You are correct that the primary process is wrong. Your solutions are wrong as well. My solution:
(1) All primaries will be “primaries” NO Caucauses.
(2) All primaries will be CLOSED to registered Republicans only...NO open primaries.
(3) I more or less do agree with you that primaries should be over in less than two months.
(4) IF no candidate has 51% of delegates after primaries are over....then do a runoff simultaneously in all 50 states on the same date between the two candidates with the most votes. Get a candidate that actually is most wanted, not just the best surviver.
(5) Eliminate a convention as being EVER a mode of selecting a candidate. Conventions exist only for PR purposes to crown the winner of voter primaries.

More backroom GOP-e decision-making? No thanks.
