Big suggestion- Primaries

This is probably way too much to ask, but I'm just throwing stuff out there for an expansion pack:

It'd be pretty neat to have primaries. The main problem would be formatting the game to accept the different methods of each state, but it would still be pretty fun to be able to run one party's candidates against their own. Ahnold Vs. W, that would be fun indeed.

I'm sure it could be simplied to just be based on the popular vote and prior success. so If you win Iowa youd get a leg up on the others, and just make it popular vote based like it is now.

I like the idea of primaries and I think it should affect your positions in the main race. I don't think they really need to break it down to which states have what type of primary just follow the pattern of primary dates and have them all as popular voting. I also would like to see the computer controlled opposition party having to go through primaries as well and kind of have it setting the stage for the main race. it would be nice to have to decide whether to attack your primary opponent or put your efforts toward solidifying your position on the war on terror because the other party is making it such a big deal.

It would create a bit of extra strategy. During the primaries, one might try to go a little extreme, appealing to the hardcore conservatives/liberals, and then you'd have to dance back to the middle during the general election.
