Elect the Top Four as Convention Delegates

     To tweak our caucus-convention system, elect more delegates to the convention. I've expressed concern that the same delegates often are elected time and time again. One way to neutralize their dominance is to expand the field. They will be a little less influential if others are elected to also go to convention alongside them. And, if you are electing, say, the top four vote-getters, that fourth-place person might be getting enough votes even though he or she is vehemently opposed by the power brokers who have been roosting at the top of the precinct for all these years.
   You are more likely to have diversity.
