So, if all states held a caucus. Only people with long standing in the party have a say in who the candidates are going to be for the general election. Voters wont have to or be able to vote between Vivek and Trump, per say. Also, ranked choice voting wouldbt even exist since the public isnt voting for who is on the ballot. You would have the party of your side selecting one. Also in a caucus, local level sets who that candidate will be. So more power of choice at a much more granular level and can easily keep foreign money out.
The first CC occurred during the late 1780s and its when state legislatures sent delegates to Philly to establish the layout of the US government while working on the Constitution.
I dont believe a federal-level CC has ever convened (state-level CCs happen occasionally) except for the one time in the 1780s however in the midst of a real Constitutional crisis then a CC might happen (guessing unless someone else knows).
The only requirement you would need to meet in order to participate in a caucus is party affiliation. That leaves out independents and members affiliated with the opposing party.
Truth. I'll only vote trump. That's my choice. All other choices are not a choice. I'm independent because there is no viable libertarian party that can perform yet

Let's do it! Caucus all 50 states!
Is that tantamount to calling a Constitutional Convention?
Whatever happened to that? Was one formed? I’d Google it but I don’t trust search results that are manipulated.
What happened. I thought they were getting close to the required number of states?
How I would love that!

But on the toppic of chosing which candidate will be on the ballot. Not having independants, swing voters, or democrats part of that is a benefit
Yes, people with no affiliation to a party should have no voice in which candidate that party chooses to run.
Truth. I'll only vote trump. That's my choice. All other choices are not a choice. I'm independent because there is no viable libertarian party that can perform yet
Good. That's a scam designed to push through terrible candidates that no one actually wants.
First past the post or you are getting cheated.
And just like the CSC Decision, your comment is STAYED, unless it gets PETITIONED, then the STAY becomes PERMANENT.....
It's just Word Games.....
