Plus, while it’s happened in the past, I don’t think many people in the country would be real happy with a candidate that none of them got a chance to vote for.

Give me a break.

Most people already don't get to cast a meaningful vote for the nominee.

The caucus/primary system is completely controlled by aparatchiks. Obama proved that by having ACORN steal all the caucuses from Hillary.

The only way we would get to choose the nominee would be a series of runoffs until somebody got more than 50% of the vote, and that will never happen.

My state's primary is less than meaningless.

Most people already don't get to cast a meaningful vote for the nominee.

So the solution is to make no one have a meaningful vote for the nominee. Got it.

You are correct. The candidate is chosen by the time it gets to my state also. Ditto many if not most of the states. A minority of voters even participate in the primaries, and a smaller minority picks the candidate—via help from the Establishment Ruling Class, that allows Independents and in some cases Dems to vote in ***our*** primaries. I know of no conservative who is happy w the status quo. A brokered convention would be a godsend, and if they chose wisely, it could engender a tidal wave of enthusiasm.
