Republican convention is the week of August 27. Two months seems to be a real short amount of time to nominate someone new and get them running against Obama and win. Plus, while it’s happened in the past, I don’t think many people in the country would be real happy with a candidate that none of them got a chance to vote for. The idea of having more than a year of debates, elections, etc. just thrown out and someone new named as the candidate would probably rub a lot of people the wrong way.
Give me a break.
Most people already don't get to cast a meaningful vote for the nominee.
The caucus/primary system is completely controlled by aparatchiks. Obama proved that by having ACORN steal all the caucuses from Hillary.
The only way we would get to choose the nominee would be a series of runoffs until somebody got more than 50% of the vote, and that will never happen.
My state's primary is less than meaningless.
