Why should the same two states, which together have a little over 1% of the population, and which are disproportionately white and rural, always get to hold the first primary and first caucus? Conversely, why should the good people of Iowa and New Hampshire be subjected to two years of attack ads every cycle? The only fair way to assign the order of primaries would be to hold a lottery before the start of each cycle, possibly with the stipulation that the same state can't go first twice in a row.
