You misunderstood my message, and for that apologize for my lack of clarification.
I do not want more fantasy nominated simply because it is fantasy. I do not want more women nominated simply because they are women. Etc for the rest.
I do not want people to nominate Scalzi because they like his blog. Does anyone actually like his horrible Heinlein pastiches? I do not want people to nominate Neil Gaiman because he is SO DREAMY.
Merit is all that should considered, but it's not.
Kevin,
There is a problem with the system. There are many aspects to this problem, but there has never been a more concrete example than The Road not being nominated.
