4. No frontloading of the primaries.
I'd like to see the primary election held on the same day in each state, if possible--and if it's not, I'd like to see results held up until all of the votes are in.

The American people are smarter than politicians give them credit for, and the more those politicians mess around with elections, the worse off everybody is. I'm really tired of all of the attacks by party insiders. Let the people take a look at the candidates' decisions, and them let them decide. Period.

I also don't like the fact that Republicans were involved (by signing up as Dem or voting as Repubs) in the Dem primary process. I know this is up to the states, but it is a cause of some real corruption in the process.
