I agree that groups make better decisions than an individual. Generally speaking. But there is a lot of diversity within the Democratic party. Democrats follow the science. This can be shown by the fact 80% of scientists are Democrats and only 6% are Republican, and over 50% of scientists are liberal. (PEW poll-look it up). Most Republicans still don't even believe in evolution or global warming. Scientists know both are settled science, so how can they vote for Republicans? Not so much in the Republican party. Republicans generally follow primitive traditions, and dogma they make up, which is why there are so many racists, sexists and homophobe's in that party and why they follow the leaders in goose step. Democrats have liberals and moderates. I want closed primaries so we only have moderates and liberals making a choice for our candidates. I don't want right wingers working with moderates against progressives to pick our candidates. Right wingers have never shown me a viable humanitarian social philosophy e.g right now North Dakota has policy that is very hurtful to the LGBTQ community and it is right wingers that worked against the 1964 civil rights act and are against gay marriage, and a woman's right to choose, and in Texas they even had a platform against teaching "higher order thinking"-lol.
