Minnesota

Sure, to welcome it, to be grateful but not to be bound by it.

Caucuses are fine to debate and vote on topics that define the party. And replacing them with primaries to select candidates has been important.

I was at a mini convention to select a candidate for an office which became vacant. The candidates sat at the dais ready to answer questions and first one, you’ve guessed it: will you abide by the endorsement”. Of course they all said yes and after it the ones not endorsed dropped out.

Candidates should appeal to all their future constituents, not just to the activists.

Yes, I realize that funds are important but if you have it, go beyond the endorsement.
