The key point is that we are a representative republic, where people don't vote directly on issues but rather elect representatives to do so. The caucus systems set up by a lot of states emphasize that aspect. People attend caucus, and elect delegates who then attend other meetings, elect the next layer of delegates, etc..

Nice theory but actual results show that party bosses chose who gets the delegates.
