So has every GOP platform since.
That is the heart of the platform, and the heart of the party.
Most of the current candidates, including and especially the Democrat Media-anointed so-called "frontrunners," have no clue about any of this, and are trying to take the party back to Jerry Ford's position. And I mean that exactly and explicitly. If someone doesn't believe me, they can go check. He said that he opposed abortion, wanted to overturn Roe, and then LET THE STATES DECIDE IF THEY WANTED THE UNALIENABLE RIGHT TO LIFE TO BE INOPERABLE in their particular state.
Same position as almost all of the current field, including Fred Thompson. There's no moral difference between them and Stephen A. Douglas in 1858.
If the GOP ever drops the ball on the abortion issue, I will cease to be a Republican. I am sure I am not alone on that promise, a third party will become inevitable.
It was good to read this dated article. It just goes to show that the battle for the Soul of America is unending.
It also served to reaffirm my choice for president, Duncan Hunter. I despise wishy washy politicians.
