Caucus Mockus or an antidote to Many Millions?

Level the Playing FieldIs the Iowa caucus a national embarrassment or a brilliant way to overcome the power of money in national party nominations?

Do you realize that if one of three Democrats or one of two Republicans had a staffer who recommended the proper combination of free taxi rides, food, location or scored the right celebrity, that candidate could get a boost in the press sufficient enough to become the nominee of their party and then become the President of the United States?

Just think, if one brought Britney Spears, the world could truly be changed by a few votes.

But then the likes of the Huckleberry Gov of the Ark and maybe even the O’Bomer or JohnWords (ever notice how long he can make short words sound?) might indeed have a chance for national publicity impossible in most other states.
