Political conventions function as broad-based media spectacles used to pick a party's nominee and present a platform.

“these have always been designed to be broad-based media spectacles now embedded inside of that my second point is there's a legal process uh or at least inside the rules of each part parties process not legal from a federal level but there's a process that takes place where the parties pick a nomine”

A drawn-out, open political convention would be detrimental to party enthusiasm and cause chaos.

“I think a drawn out convention you would not have seen the enthusiasm you would have seen chaos just like it has never worked before so who's to say it's going to work now”
