Primaries are held by the states, before the Convention. It's.. kind of the whole point?

The point is to give voters a ~~change~~ (EDIT Er, a chance, not change lol) to express their preferences before the Convention. The primaries aren't legally binding, they're just a fancy opinion poll.

A mail-in ballot fulfills the same function.

It sounds like you are advocating for primaries.

I'm advocating for replacing Biden by any means necessary. I think a condensed super-primary would be the best way to do it, but I'm not opposed to him being replaced at the Convention either.
