...Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama have so far overshadowed Edwards in this race, but he is a top-tier candidate and a real threat to win the nomination. He leads most polls in the key first-caucus state of Iowa, which he came close to winning in 2004. To put it bluntly, Edwards is the leading white male Democratic contender for a job that has only ever gone to white males. If, in the future, he either suspends his campaign or drops out of the race entirely, his supporters will have to look around and decide which of the remaining...

...elections. If many of the primaries are held on the same day, candidates who are not well-known nationally early on or who do not yet have enough money to campaign competitively in all states will be at even more of a disadvantage than they already are. For example, Iowa Governor Tom Vilsack has already pulled out of the race for lack of funds. Pushing all the primaries together will only worsen the disturbingly large advantage well-financed candidates have at the outset. If the nineteen states do not reverse course, it will be all of America?...
