Reply #54: My idea is scrap the idea of superdelegates

Keep proportional allocation (it's more representative than winner take all), and have a weekly Tuesday election with a set of primaries. Start the process closer to the convention though, to keep the election shorter as well. I would also start with smaller states (pick one or two - each from a different region) and keep going up gradually in terms of population, in the end having the largest states with the biggest media markets.

This way, the system would be fair enough to give smaller states a say giving less funded candidates a chance to connect with voters (though I like the idea of public financing anyways) and eventually you end up with big states that cost a lot to advertise in.

Allocate state delegations by the number of congressional districts or population. Also get rid of caucuses. I agree that it inhibits certain voters from making it to the polls.

No, this isn't a simple plan, but the key is consistency. I think it's crazy that each state does things a bit different (like the whole Texas system)...
