Reply #11: Its not really about any state going first.

Michigan Democratic action vs NH was not necessarily Michigan first. But, resentment of NH demanding the right to always go first. / Actually, if Mich went first, other states should feel peeved. / Its really about the elimination process. What candidate gets eliminated by whom. All states need an equal right at the elimination process. And that process need have all elements of the party an equal voice. that is not the case now.
Get a load of the Detroit Free Press' Democratic map of the United States. Reaction from today's Detroit newspapers. Pretty odd looking country. ? No Great Lakes or Gulf coast shoreline to delineate the outline of the USA.
