(16 posts)If you do a national primary, it would eliminate anyone who does not have huge money. Money is a big enough problem right now. I do think we need to get all the power out of Iowa and NH though. We should have rotating regional primaries.
I am married to a Canadian, actually got married last summer in Toronto. Sometimes I get so frustrated in the US that people are disconnected from reality in regards to politics etc. That changed, I can't believe the amount of things going on in Canada that the public does not seem to care about. I used to look at canada as this beacon to our north with health care. However, with Harper and conservatives in power you are quickly losing that. Just look around the city of Toronto, all this construction. Then you see who is backing it. It is all asian and middle eastern money. The entire province of Alberta will soon be owned by the Chinese energy companies (government). Canada needs to wake up before it is just bought out and becomes Beijing of the west. Now Harper is trying to defund CBC which is one of the few entities reporting these stories. Is there any outrage up there? Status quo?
Lastly, to the person below who said the Queen does not cost Canada money. Canada pays more person for the Queen then those in England.
