Kamala Harris in 2020: CA on track to hold primary in March instead of June

3. I think a shake-up in the order of the states in the primary is in order...

To be honest, it is unfair that small, homogeneous states such as IA and NH get to go first every time. If it were up to me, the primary process would be alphabetical, with the 5 first states (or 10 first) one cycle being put last the next cycle, so that there's a rotation of who goes first, and a geographical and size-related mix at all times. Closed primaries in all states, too, of course - we don't need non-members deciding who our candidate should be. If they want to decide who the party uses its electoral energy on, they can damn well join the party and pay their dues (metaphorically speaking!) And caucuses are inherently discriminatory against segments of our membership (the disabled, working people, parents, caretakers, the poor etc), so they should go.
