50. Do away with the Iowa "first in the nation bamboozle...."
...and establish a national elimination primary on one day all over the country. To be followed by a general election on the first weekend in November.

And enforce the federal laws regarding one person, one vote in every state.

I don't care which "campaign" is doing it or not. Trucking people accross state lines to vote in primaries, crossing party lines to affect competitive races, all the other reasons I have heard every election - is bullshit. Forget about your candidate for a second and think about it.

Why do so many in this country fear free elections with every vote counting equally?
