Totally Agree. The primary process has corrupted the political process of selecting the best individual to be the nominee. There should be one day for all states to vote on primary day just like it is on election day. Let the National Conventions still take place and change things if necessary, but lets have just one primary day.

“Mitch Daniels When Mitch Daniels was sworn in as governor in January of 2005, there was one ethanol plant in Indiana. Now there are twelve operating plants and a thirteenth set to start running early next year. This isn’t an accident: Daniels aimed to increase Indiana’s annual ethanol and biodiesel production to 1 billion gallons by 2008. Once that thirteenth plant begins producing, Indiana will have met the goal.”

While this is tangential to the core issue of this article, IIRC the IndyCar Series began running E100 a year after Daniels took office and began pushing for ethanol production in Indiana. Could just be a coincidence, though.

A lot of Farmers don’t realize that if you cut their subsidies by 1/2 and their income taxes by 1/2 they would be far better off.

The GOP could win over many of them that still vote the “Rosevelt Democrat” line by explaining this to them.

Government subsidies are all about control, there is no doubt about that.
