Reply #4: True dat. I think the problem is the length of time to get a nominee. [View All]

Back in the old days the candidates had to travel to cities to give the speeches so all could hear them. Now with electronic media we know more about each candidate then we really care to know.. It does not take that long to decide on a candidate and learn their views, policies, and experience. Same with the other candidates. So, we pick our candidates and then watch videos and gossip news tear each other down... Then we start getting caught up in flag pin debates and gotcha sound bites..
In todays times the length of the campaigns should be cut in half at least..
