I am having a moment of sudden understanding–and thus sudden anger–about the Iowa caucus. How can this be the way we want things done? Here’s my problem with the caucus system: What if everyone in Iowa wanted to participate? I know, that’s crazy, but let’s just say they did. Not possible. What if you’re on dialysis? How many 17-year-old babysitters are there to go around? Who will man the 911 system, the emergency room, the quickie mart. What if you’re […]
