It just seems a little retarded to have a pre-vote to who you're going to vote for.

Because if the people who vote for Clinton to win over Obama are really pissed off, they might not vote in the actual election itself anyways, because the candidate isn't the one they approve of.

I say don't elect the candidates per party, appoint them. The party decides who they want to lead them in the election, opposed to a little over half the democrats who support that person. That way instead of getting (roughly) half the countries voters to vote democrat, you might only get a little over a quarter of them to vote. If they get choked enough.
