How about getting rid of the caucus system all
together and opting for spring time primaries. This
would actually make Minnesota a player in the
presidential election instead of a flyover during the

Iowa does have Caucuses. Their system is very similar to ours, except their primary is the first Tuesday in June. Iowa a major Presidential player because it has the distinction of being the state with the earliest caucus (first week in February). Candidates go there and New Hampshire (earliest primary in the nation) to kick start some MOEmentum for the rest of the nation to witness, and hopefully buy into.
