In other words, being first thrusts the Iowa Caucus onto a towering public stage with extraordinary public interest. Both of these factors-the normative public debate and the empirical public frenzy-demonstrate the need for a very close look at the Caucus, in all its warts and beauty. Grassroots Rules was written to provide just such a study.…
