No, Jim, but thanks for the answer. That isn't how the platform gets written. Ergo, YOU have absolutely NO say, whatsoever, in the matter and neither does the presumptive candidate.

Actually it's exactly how it gets written.

Ergo, YOU have absolutely NO say, whatsoever,

Once again our liberal friend nopardons displays not only her ignorance of the Platform Committee, its rules and procedures, and the workings of the Committee on the Platform, but some shockingly bad manners as well.

and neither does the presumptive candidate.

See the immediate above. Their's no such thing as a 'presumptive' candidate, only presumptious blowhards who think there is.

Once the Candidate is chosen he or she works in concert with the Platform Committee as per the Rules

.

Now please, don't spout off on subjects which you know nothing about.

If we conservatives unite behind a conservative who supports the conservative positions outlined above and we get him nominated and he beats the socks off Hillary (which he will) you might be surprised to see the GOP platform looking more and more like a conservative platform. Guarantee you ALL of the planks listed above will be in it.

If we don't nominate a conservative then I guarantee you one or more will be missing or misrepresented.

Of course, if we fail completely and Hillary is elected, then the GOP platform becomes meaningless and moot for a long time.
