In a year with LOTS of candidates, there needs to be time for the field to winnow and for consolidation to occur.... just like happened this year.

I would like 4-5 primary dates with states group to form a representative demographic groups, and rotate the position of those groups in the order every cycle.

That maintains the ability of candidates to visit individual states, and for consolidation to occur, but eliminate the silliness of Iowa and New Hampshire.

Also, NO freaking caucuses. they're ridiculous.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
