I support a constitutional amendment stating that all federal primaries must be held between April 15th and April 30th

No offense to my FReeper friends in Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Florida, but I would like a National Primary Day.

Why should only a few states decide who our nominee is? And it is all driven by the media anyways... This is how we got McCain.

Why do you think open voting by "declared Republicans" is a good idea?

No kidding. In the '08 primary, by the time voting occurred in New Mexico, it was between McCain and Paul. Woohoo! What a choice.

if we do them all at once the smaller states become flyover country in favor of the larger states.

we simply need to gut NH and IOWA as first up states and spread the rest out.
