The sprawling nominating process is the critical first step every
four years in the election of the president. It is where the field
of contenders is narrowed from a plethora of aspirants to the two
finalists that carry the banners of the Democratic and Republican
parties into the fall campaign. In a democracy such as ours, the
voters should be major players in this process. Yet while 100
million or more Americans regularly participate in the election of
the president, rarely does more than a third that number vote in
the presidential primaries and caucuses that nominate the
candidates. And only a small percentage of these voters have a
truly meaningful voice - the fortunate few in Iowa, New Hampshire
and a handful of other early voting states that for all practical
purposes decide for the rest of the nation who the nominees will
be. The thrust of this book is to discuss how we as a nation got to
this point, how the nominating process currently works, how that
compares to other countries, and how our process might be changed
to give a more meaningful voice to a much larger number of voters.
