Aren’t Hillary and Barack supposed to be on the same side?
I mean, you have to go around the whole country, spending a zillion dollars, having separate elections in X number of states just to work out who’s going to lead a party? Where I come from, all that crap is sorted out behind closed doors….
American politics does my head in.
I don’t know. I’d like to have a say in who leads my party of choice. I think it’s great that the Americans take it to the people, although I concede that this does mean spending an awful lot of money, making it prohibitive for anyone who wasn’t moneyed up to get the job. Although Obama’s lots-of-small-donations strategy is impressive on this front.
