Don't Get Rid of Caucus-Convention System, Expand it

   Idea Three, as I dream up election systems for you all:
   Instead of getting rid of the caucus-convention system so everyone's vote will count, expand it till everyone's vote counts.
   And, I do mean expand. Like, invite everyone to the conventions, even as everyone is already invited to the caucuses. Listen to this: Make convention day a state holiday, closing most workplaces so more people can attend. Keep the convention rolling for, oh, 20 hours so those who do have work can still attend when they get off work. Link different venues together through teleconferencing to accommodate however many show up.
   The caucus meetings would serve to start the campaigns, and also for the public to seek out other candidates and encourage them to run.
