If you did that, you would make it even harder to be a viable candidate. Fundraising ability already is probably the most important thing in Presidential politics -- take away the ability to win some early victories and build momentum, and you'll deter even more good people from running because they can't afford nationwide media.

Just my 2 cents, YMMV.

You still like Thompson best? What do you guys think about Huckabee?
