Considering how little meat your post has to it shows there isn't much to debate.
There really are no flaws in the closed primary concept. The flaws are in the stranglehold the two-party system has on our nation. It is perfectly reasonable for a political party to desire only members of their own party to vote for the representative for that party in an election. It is not reasonable how many uncontested races we have in this nation or how elections for federal office are realistically only down to two parties, and sometimes one for legislature elections.
