GOP asks for public's help crafting 2016 platform, launches interactive website
Published June 08, 2016 FoxNews.com


Donald Trump’s rise has fueled an identity crisis of sorts for the Republican Party – and now, the GOP is seeking the public’s help defining what the party of 2016 represents.

On the heels of the final primary contests that solidified Trump’s claim to the nomination, the Republican National Committee on Wednesday launched an interactive website, www.platform.gop, for people to share what they would like to see in the party’s platform. That document will be drafted and adopted at the convention in July.

“While Democrats are letting party insiders write their platform behind closed doors, Platform.gop is proof of our Party’s philosophy of listening to the voice of the people and honoring the democratic process,” RNC Chairman Reince Priebus said in a statement.

What could go wrong?   

It's not like Trump is going to follow it anyway.

We should demand "Free the Delegates!"

They're basically admitting here they have no principles, no guiding light, no nothing. Just whatever the public demands.

Since, I'm not voting for the GOP Nominee, why should I give a damn..

Since, I'm not voting for the GOP Nominee, why should I give a damn..

  We should do what the liberals do and invade our former party and demand an open convention.

Well, knowing they don't really care about we the people, and knowing that if they push Trump into that nominee spot, HE certainly won't do diddly or rather, he'll do the exact opposite, I went ahead and put my $.02 in anyway.

At least I did what I could.  Whether they'll listen or give any weight or concern to a little ole peon like me, is another thing, entirely.
