I think we should go right up the center of Middle America from Texas to North Dakota. Our states are reliably red time after time. In those states you have demographics including American Indian.
I want any state that went blue sent to the back of the pack!
I agree, with one caveat. I think FL,OH, or MO should be among the first 5 states. These are bellwethers and must haves for Republicans so I think they should have a good say in the nominee.
But states like NH,IA,MI should be at the end.
It should go kind of like you said, from most reliably Republican to least.
