A better way to nominate?

U.S. Rep. David Price, D-N.C., thinks there’s a better way to select presidential candidates that the current wacky presidential primaries.
In fact, according to The News & Observer, he thinks there are at least two better ways – one Democratic and one Republican. Price, who has represented the 4th District (including Chapel Hill, Durham and part of Raleigh for nearly two decades, things the compressed primary system leading up to the Feb. 5 “Super Duper” primary om 22 states, ends too abruptly, the N&O reports. He prefers a system that would have five primaries each Tuesday during a two or three-month period ending in March, reports correspondent Karin Dryhurst, with Iowa and New Hampshire leading off.
As an alternative, the so-called “Delaware Plan” backed by some Republicans has merit. That plan would retain small state primaries at the start and save larger state primaries for later.
He is not, however, enthusiastic about a single national primary because it wouldn’t test candidates sufficiently and would heighten the influence of big political donations, the N&O story said.
