Good Morning, MichaelI'm glad to see you. I hoped this topic would attract thoughtful comment. I may have misunderstood your point, though.
I think you are suggesting that party primaries be open to the public? Is that your intent? If so, would the attending non-partisans have to vote for one of the party's candidates?
I'm anxious to examine your ideas, but want to be sure my understanding is correct.
