Calling Obamanew
Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton: a tough choice for me, as each would make an excellent president. (Of course, compared with the current occupant of the White House, so would Mike, my barber, but I digress.)

Independents Hurt American Democracy
Open primaries are pushing the parties toward moderate candidates. Moderate candidates reduce voter interest. Could open primaries lead to the death of U.S. democracy?
