No, you said the constitution “leaves it up to the party doing the nominating to make that determination”. Which Article and Section does that?

I imagine the point being made is that the Constitution and its writers did not envision the formation of political parties. Instead, they placed the initial responsibility for screening candidates on the voters themselves, augmented by the States via the presidential elections, and followed by the Electoral College.

You want to play liberal word games go to the DU. I’m not one of your fellow puppets and not easily confused by shiny things and bullshit. You know damn well what I mean and you know I’m right.

I’m done playing childish games with idiots who are too stupid to know when they’re monkeys dancing at the end of a democrat string.
