Our free republic was built on states rights. As a strong supporter of the 10th Amendment, and equally strong advocate for repealing the 17th Amendment, I am satisfied with the current delegate selection process that leans heavily on states.
The problem today is corruption, incompetence, and cronyism in Washington DC, not the sovereign states. I therefore don’t want republican elites in DC dictating primary rules to the states.
Be careful what you wish for.

States rights were effectively killed after the Civil War, and then neutered all over again ever since by the courts and the threats to cut off Federal funding if they don’t tow the line on any issue. I don’t like it, but it’s true. As far as the primary process, it needs to be reformed. This race has exposed its corruption and flaws.
