We need to change our primary system. I don’t know how, but something is wrong when momentum wins more votes than the candidate himself. Too bad we can’t designate a federal primary day for federal elections.
I agree. We shouldn't start in liberal states, nor should we allow open primaries in any state.
I agree six months before Election Day there should be Primary Day, then let the battle begin! :-)
I favor of having all primaries and caucuses on the same day. I don't use the term "national primary," because that sounds like it eliminates the States in the nomination process (like abolishing the Electoral College would in electing the President).
If it's permissible under the First Amendment, I would ban polls. The voters should not be manipulated by polls that are portrayed as the Word of God, or by who other States have selected.
