I am not a fan of Cheryl Crow and have never been one, but she is correct. The presidential campaigns are way to long.

[digger48]

Especially since the Elites have already decided the outcome.

Sheryl Crow is one of my many "shut up and sing" artists. I also agree with her on this as well.

How about: mind your own business and respect others’ right to free speech, including campaigning.
Change the channel if you don’t like what’s on.

[Talisker]

The only one who got smashed was Hillary. Hillary started the two year campaign cycle in 2007-2008. Sheryl Crow is a Dem Rat. The country is fighting back against monstrous tyranny.

Do the math.

[americas.best.days...]

Weird. I just started a petition to limit the number of award shows per year to one.

[dfwgator]

I will say there were way too many Republican candidates running for the nomination.

They need no more than three.

uglyhag

I would prefer a longer campaign cycle..... Your mileage may vary

[Arthur McGowan]

Yeah. Shorten it to a month. That way, we might have ended up with the RIGHTFUL candidate—Jeb!

[Vince Ferrer]

Countries across the globe have limited campaign seasons to as short as 6 weeks.

Having a cycle too short also limits the amount of vetting that can be performed on a candidate.

[Ransomed]

The political propaganda of 20 + months gets longer and more expensive, all in order to possibly sway the swayable 10% of dumbest voters who supposedly decide all national elections, or convince folks to vote or not to vote at all. Despite that we haven’t had 65% eligible voter turnout since 1908, which might actually be a good thing if it only increases the swing vote as a %. Meanwhile attention spans shorten as actual human memory is replaced by whatever happens to showcased in the media cycle.

Freegards

2 squares TP, shorter campaigns, no bathing or shaving in nethers...this “woman” is all about gaining efficiencies.

This ^^^

[connyankee]

Agree. Who asked this has-been anyway?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

This will just give the establishment more time to sandbag everybody else.

[Reily]

If the allowed campaign time was shorter less money would need to be raised. I think this blind squirrel found her acorn.

[stratboy]

If that were to happen, the establishment would have given us Kasich, Bush, or Graham to choose from. No rules where the establishment decides for us.

[Herodes]

I always look to Cheryl Crow for advice and counsel for all things political.

Just as I always look to Hillary for all things of a musical nature.

[proud American in Canada]

LOL!

I’m starting a petition to limit the number of albums singers can put out!
