9. Again, that would destroy any candidate that doesn't have inside fundraising connections
It may not be fair that they always go first, but candidates could succeed in Iowa and New Hampshire with real grassroots campaigning. That's the test I want to put my candidates through, not how much money they can raise.

Until the playing field is level (we fix the public financing system), it's incredibly unfair to lesser known less connected candidates to have big states to go first or to have a one day national primary (which we will essentially have on February 5th).
