Default "socialist" when describing Hillary Clinton

What will it take to fix it? I have no idea, but I wish it would be
fixed. I realize why it has not been; because the powers wish it to stay
as it is.


Two ideas:

1. Hold all state primaries on the same day, by law no more than six months
in advance of the presidential election. (This never-ending electioneering
must end...)

2. Make Election Day a national holiday, as is done in many democracies.
(Before you think I've gone soft, though, in order to do this Congress must
eliminate one other national holiday...)

I think #1 would go a long ways toward leveling the playing field, and #2
would help address our absurdly low election day turnout.
