Virginia illustrates what a farce and waste of money these primaries/caucuses are. The nation should have one primary day where all the states select the nominees of each party. The primary day should have 3 or 4 debates leading up to it.
I like the idea of having 5 primary dates with 10 regionally diverse states voting on each day. 2 north 2 south, 2 east, 2 west and 2 central.

To Kenmcg, first of all whatever happened to “state rights”and ability to exercise the best way to run their individual state elections.
Second of all If all the primaries were held on the same day, how would the candidates get around and introduce themselves to each state.
Third.. First impressions of a candidate are not always accurate, the process reveals who should be the nominee for each party in each state.
Fourthly,only 4 debates tell us nothing about who the candidates are.
Last.. Virginia is not a waste of voters rights in primaries and caucuses, they have their rules and guidelines to be elected in their state, they are posted on every Sec. of States website in every state, how to qualify to be on the ballot. Look it up, do your homework.
