Would you give a second thought, would you ever give a damn?

Congratulations! Your party is in a bind, they forgot to write a platform, and it's due tomorrow. So they asked you to whip something up and give it to the press in the morning.
Today's IFIAYAQD question is: What is your platform? Tell me about what your party stands for, and what they believe in, because this year you get to decide.

My platform would be made of redwood with a nice protective coat of urithane. Handrails for safety and leaning against when drunk would be good. Maybe 5'x 8' in dimension, big enough for an intimate gathering....

...oh, you meant political platform. That's different.

How about: 1) No lying, ever. 2) Term limits for everyone. 3) No corporation or special interest (and all interests are special) lobbying, ever. 4) No personal donations to candidates, ever. 5) Balanced budget, always. 6) Line Item Veto, forever. 7) Halve the number of people working in government, immediately. 8) Cut the hours of the remaining employees by half, immediately. 9) No whining, ever.

Special Interest Item: 10) Outlaw public school districts.
