I agree, now what do you purpose we replace primaries with? I rack my brain, when I was child, I was taught anyone can grow up to be the president, now as an adult I realize how true it is! Be well, Robert

I have -- but not 'for months.' ... Then again, have you ever seen candidates worse than those nominated in 2016, 2020, and about to be nominated in 2024? It seems that 'the people' come up with clueless nominees, and then they complain about the the names on the ballot...

I was watching a video by Dennis Prager and he made the point these ne're do wells are doing what they're doing to break down society to bring about chaos and secularism. Christianity and Judaism are in their gun sights. If they fall... the western world falls. Hold on tight my friend. Stay frosty.

perhaps you're right. Maybe primaries are archaic... they do give me a tummy ache :-)
