Who says you have to vote for the candidate that is already picked. This is a free country and you can vote for whoever you want.
My wife is from Massachusetts but before she was done with her teen years, she found out that New Hampshire was a much better place to call home.
That’s a great idea, and all primaries MUST be closed.
The NH House of Representatives has 3 out of 4 who were not born here. Believe me, the place was a lot better off when the natives were in charge.
We need a new system. How about dividing the country into regions and having one state from each region vote on a given date. Rotate or chose at random the states to ensure each state has a chance to be involved. I’m sick and tired of the idiots in Iowa and New Hampshire always having such a heavy influence on the nomination.
I think a better question is is America fit to choose a president?
You're right...watch who the 'independents' support on the GOP side in today's primary...that will tell you who the Democrats want to run against Obama. In 2008, 'independents' went for McCain. We know how THAT turned out...
I think it would also help to tone down the vitriol between candidates. Iowa has become a 9 month dog fighting pit that benefits only the media.
Get them out of Iowa and campaigning nationwide. As it is now, only one candidate did any campaigning in Michigan and that was Herman Cain. His exit has pretty much handed the state to Romney by default.
Everybody knows that there is no place more important than New York.
Exactly and that must mean
MITT ROMNEY, NO WAY
Liberals would love to have it all start (and end) in California.
You get my vote.
It is not right that by the time half of Aericans get to vote the Candidates have been picked over by states with open voting and filled with Yankee’s.
Been there, done that. Although I'm not originally from Massachusetts, I do have a house there as well as one in New Hampshire.
Fortunately, she doesn’t read your freep posts.
These two states are not typical in that neither one of them has a major city. Some states are primarily rural but are regional centers with an important city, while many others - all over the country, and not just on the coasts - have large urban areas.
So making these two states the litmus tests for candidates for the entire US population is a big mistake.
In addition, I think one of the reasons that the GOP often does poorly in cities in the general elections is precisely because GOP candidates start off by focusing so heavily on two states that are among the most non-urban, non-industrial of all. Therefore the candidates never develop the policies or answers that would make them important to the larger urban populations.
Yet at the same time, the thing that really makes a candidate win in either NH or Iowa is something purely personal, mostly “how much is he like me?” In these rather liberal states, the winner is bound to be a dull RINO of some kind; possibly a social conservative who seems safe, possibly not even socially conservative, but in general, a non-threatening white-bread (not referring to his color!) kind of candidate.
Inbred and too stupid to go south.
Totally agree. All 50, winner take all.
