and will still give more time for the ones with money. I think that only Clinton, Edwards and Obama got $20 million.
I would like to have some sort of a rotating regional or other criteria, like size, primaries.

We need to have some reform on how we pay for the elections. Should Iowa really make $60 million every four years for being the "first in the nation?"
I like the idea of a free time for each candidate. But not necessarily on a national program. Let the local media provide one hour for each candidate, so that they can talk about what is important to that market. This will give the candidates a chance to learn about the small items, not just the big, national ones.
Last, we need to get rid of the system where the winner of the popular votes is not the winner of the delegates. Wait and see the bizarre system that Texas will provide, with different districts awarded different number of delegates, and then a caucus.
Haven't we learned from the Gore Bush injustice?
