Stupidest thing I have ever, I just looked up how to primary

for the Democratic party. This caucus thing may be ok for the young and able but, their is not a fucking way my spouse or I can stand in someone's house for hours while they vote over and over again.

I do not support the caucus system. While I consider myself a liberal activist, I don't think it is a good idea to have the activists dominate the process. That does not necessarily result in a candidate with general election appeal, and it is basically an undemocratic approach.

Every election, from primary to general, should have automatic registration with a two-week period for mail-in or polling place voting. There is no reason to make voting so hard in this country other than.....to facilitate voter suppression.
