[My GOP]

Oh, ok so you think that a few party leaders along with the current nominee should determine the definition of a "real" Republican and that no one can disagree at all, even if only on one issue, with them if they want to be a "real" Republican. And the definition changes every four years. I see.

I didn't say that and I don't think the platform changes every 4 years.

The only purpose of the platform is to let people know what the views of the party are.

I would think that anyone could read it and then know who was in line with Republican views ie; a real Republican.

Its rather simple if you think about it.
