The more each voter knows about the person who they intend to vote for then the people of the United States of America have no one to blame but themselves if the elected President of the United States of America fails to comply with the wishes of the majority of "We People of the United States of America." So too, when a President fails to comply with his or her sworn oath to "Obey, Protect and Defend the Constitution of the United States of America" that particular individual should properly be impeached. 

The real problem with our "Democratic Political System" is the fact that after a person is elected to "Public Office" getting rid of that person is a truly difficult thing to do. These days an elected President has to commit a crime and be proved guilty of that crime before he or she is removed from office. The same is more or less true for every elected politician.

On the other hand, any person who has a whole lot of money or has access to a whole lot of money can become a candidate for "Public Office." So now the process begins for one of those candidates to win the support of the people who are members of the political party of the candidate who desires to be the next President of the United States of America. As it happens, it is now the people who are the members of the Republican Party who must now select the person who will oppose the Democratic candidate who is most likely the current President of the United States of America.

As a result, there currently are many Republican candidates who will tell the people what they intend to do for the people of the United States of America if they become the next "Number one symbol of Democracy." Like it or not, the candidate who gets the most money is usually the person who wins the support of his or her party. Such was the case when the current President had ten times more money than Mrs. Clinton.

Having a State Primary Election more than nine months before the General Election gives all of the people within the party within the other States within the Union plenty of time to see how well one or more of those Presidential Candidates did during those earlier primary elections. That is, if  the people believe that each of those primary winners will actually do what he or she promise to do after he or she becomes "President of the United States of America." If you are a member or a registered voter who supports the Republican Party you must now vote for the person who you believe will be the best person for the job. You do want one of the people of the political party that you support to win the election.

The truth of the matter is that the more "We People of the United States of America" know about those people who seek "Public Office" the better off we will be. Come election day in November, 2012 it does now matter what political party you happen to support because a registered Democrat can vote for a Republican candidate and a registered Republican can vote for a Democrat. May the best person win.
