Well, I’ve always wondered why small states like Iowa and Vermont get to have so much power in choosing our candidates. In 2008, did Vermont go for McClame? On the other hand, I worry that if AZ goes first, McClame will get renewed delusions of grandeur and jump into the race, thinking he has a chance.

A single Primary Election date should be used, where rogue fast-Registering busloads of Union Activists pack the ballot box to try to sway key races to weak Republican candidates.

The whole political process is now money-driven, and the funds needed to command control of the propoganda machines in "all 57 States" for ONE date would be prohibitive, and hence, is opposed by the Establishment of BOTH Parties.

In the General Election (all states) vote on the same day. My use of the words "all states" means all the people in this country from every state votes on the same day.

So why not make it the same day for each state to hold their primaries? I think the voting is skewed when a state or several states that are more liberal or more conservative gets to go first. Thus sealing up the outcome before the other states have a chance down the line.
