I'm missing the problem here. If the caucus only lasts an hour, is there a reason it can't be held Saturday evening? Everyone can vote then.
Since there *is* a solution, to set this up so as to exclude an entire religious/ethnic group is inexcusable. I know Jews don't like complaining, for fear they will come under fire for it, but that's not doing a favor to either the Jewish community or the democracy we lived in. Jews contribute fully to this country, we should be free to vote at all stages of this process.
The inanity of the other thread here, that began with not knowing when the Muslim Sabbath was, is astounding. "Semitic" is a word referring to a large racial category that includes both Jews (whose origins are in the Middle East) and Arabs. The negative form has come to be used specifically in reference to Jews, but even in its original usage, it was never simply a synonym for "Arab", any more than "dog" is a synonym for "chihuaha."
The assumption here that everything in our world has revolve around Arabs, even language, really gets tiring. Common sense before politics, please.
