I agree, I think that the primaries are a reason why we are getting more extreme candidates from both sides. There isn’t much participation apart from the more hard nosed Dems or Republicans. However my feeling is that in practice, they would have a less official primary and limit their prospects anyways. Really need to remove the party system, but that’s not easy either. Our political system has gathered a number of flaws over the years, and I don’t think they will be easy to remove them, without completely starting over.
