It is nice to be independent But the closed Republican primaries do not allow independents to vote. That is just fine with the GOPe as the more establishment Republicans can thwart the will of the larger conservative electorate.

Exactly! It's Mississippi all over again. The left makes up a phony racist charge, hammers it 24/7 in the press, and those die-hard Republicans think it will hurt the party.

Then you have Cruz's version of pushing Granny off a cliff, Trump wants socialized medicine, Trump's going to take your guns, and the elderly turn to Ted for protection. Very depressing.

Here in South Dakota we have closed primaries and if you are registered independent, you can only vote in the Democrat primary.
