Rep. James Clyburn said the Democratic Party should do away with caucuses after Iowa’s system broke down this week.

The South Carolina Democrat said he has been a longtime opponent of the Iowa caucuses over demographic reasons and because caucuses can be “manipulated.” Clyburn voiced his opposition to the current system in an interview with Politico on C-SPAN on Friday.
