Malgré la quantité de preuves attestant de l'importance attribuée aux partis dans le système politique américain, la méfiance à l'égard des formations politiques est profondément ancrée dans l'esprit des citoyens. L'adoption, au début du XXe siècle, des primaires directes pour désigner les candidats lors d'élections fédérales ou locales, et la récente prolifération des primaires présidentielles, qui jouent à présent un rôle décisif dans la nomination des candidats à la présidence, témoignent du sentiment d'hostilité qui prévaut dans l'opinion publique envers les partis. 2, record 1, French, - primaire%20directe
