Primaries Trying to Move Past Iowa and New Hampshire

For some reason this is a bad thing according to this article.

"The US has adopted what effectively is a national primary without having
made a deliberate decision to do so," said political science professor Linda
Fowler, at Dartmouth College in Dartmouth, New Hampshire.

I think this only means that two states full of white, rural voters no longer get a chance to pick the President anymore. It is asinine to have the future leader of the free world have to eat in the same Iowa diner 10 times in order to pander to a tiny minority of Americans. I think a President needs to know more about the problems of America in general rather then just have a strong position on farm subsidies. Now a larger slice of Americans get a chance to put up the choices for the next President.

It will hurt people without a ton of early money but if they aren't bringing in the cash in big gobs. However a person that can't raise the money usually isn't a viable candidate in the long run anyway. We may not get a come from behind type of candidate but at least more Americans are involved in the picking process then any other time.

Maybe in future elections we won't have to choose between two different white, Yale, Skull and Bonesmen. If all goes well we could have an Italian Yankee fan that went to Manhattan College versus a Hapa-Black guy that graduated from Colombia.
