During primary elections, voters have the ability to choose who will run as their party's representatives in the next election. Primary elections are held for governmental posts at all levels, state, local, and federal.
Political parties select their candidates for president after the primary elections. They go to their parties convention and cast votes for the person they think has a better chance to be elected.
The early primary elections, which rank multiple candidates in the same party, tend to 'weed out' those with no chance of winning a presidential election, and allowing the probable peospects to the top of the list. Since New Hampshire has the first primary (Iowa has caucuses - a little different) election leading to a presidential election, it is only the second public measurement of each candidate's presidential potential.
The Democrats use primaries to choose their presidential candidate. They pick the candidate who has the best chance to win. The popular vote in Democratic primaries is altered by the appointment of "Super-Delegates". This has been a controversial part of their primary process.

It gives them a chance to vote
Virginia does not have party registration. In Virginia a person can vote in one primary, republican or democrat, but not both. So a republican can vote in the democratic primary. Should you chose the democrat you most agree with or the one you think has the greatest chance of loosing to the republican is up to you.
Minor and Third parties play roles as spoiler by taking votes from a major candidate. If a third party member leans towards the republican party, then s/he may take votes from independents and moderates that may have otherwise voted for the republican candidate. This will result in the democratic candidate having a better chance of winning because votes for the republican party were split.
Most US elections do not offer a default to "none of the above." For a Presidential election, if by some incredible chance no one voted for either candidate on Election Day, it would go to the House of Representatives (which would also decide a tie, or if no candidate achieved a majority of electoral votes).
It is important for parties to choose a good leader as a candidate because they want their candidate to win. A good leader will have a better chance of beating the other candidate.
