Om A Citizen's Guide to Presidential Nominations

This concise and coherent Citizen¿s Guide examines who has power in presidential nominations and how this affects who we as citizens choose to nominate, and ultimately to sit in the Oval Office. Political scientist Wayne Steger defines the nominating system as a tension between an "insider game" and an "outsider game," depending on the unity and participation of the political party activists and officials, and the presidential aspirants who decide run. Either party insiders unify early behind a candidate, effectively deciding the nominee before anyone casts a vote, or they are divided and the nomination is determined by citizens in the caucuses and primaries. By clearly addressing the key issues, past and present, of presidential nominations, Steger¿s guide will be informative, relevant, and accessible for students and general readers alike.
