The Jays Wrote:But, say the amendment went through. At that point, you can eliminate the party system, because how would you nominate candidates? State primaries would no longer be necessary, because you have removed the ability for a state to choose presidents.why couldn't there just be a national primary for each party? and i'm not sure on this, but i think not every state gets a primary, so how is that fair? the only way for every vote to be counted equally is if every vote is counted and the result is who gets elected. period. and as far as your claim that people would vote for the local guy, wouldn't al sharpton have won new york then?
