Here's a question that, if only for my own amusement, I'd like to see interviewers put to the folks currently running for either the Democratic or Republican presidential nominations.
Each year before they get around to selecting their nominee, the parties debate, argue, fight, vote and then adopt a platform — a statement of what the party believes and what its goals are in terms of policy and legislation. Then they pick a nominee who pledges to run on and uphold that platform, and who then completely ignores it. I doubt any of them even look at it and I do recall Bob Dole admitting he never read it and expressing amazement that anyone thought he would.
So the question I'd like to see put to Clinton, Trump, Cruz, Sanders and Kasich is this: "Will you pledge to read and consider your party's platform and to either abide by it or issue a clear statement as to which parts of it you will not follow?" Because all five of those folks have taken stands that will probably be in opposition to their party's platform. Wouldn't it be nice if our politicians didn't pledge to honor promises they never read?
