Re: “Obama”, Jan. 5.
I was disappointed but not surprised to see the Free Press splatter the name Obama over its front page just because a handful and I do mean handful of farmers from Iowa favored Obama over the rest of the Democratic candidates. These few undiversified Iowans get to pick our presidential line-up because papers like the Free Press give them and their opinions an undeserved importance. Our primary system must be changed to give more Americans a voice in choosing who runs for president.
