I should add that the LP Platform is not a short list of ringing slogans that grab people and inspire them. The planks are lengthy, awkwardly written, and most people who read them will be dissatisfied with them in some way. I find most people who read them come away remembering only the things they were dissatisfied with and forgetting the good stuff. Each plank is a mini-essay from fervent advocates, but seldom expressed well. Each advocacy group feels slighted if it isn't wordy enough, but the less fervent are likely to be turned off by the wordiness, especially if the meaning is not clear or compelling. It should not be surprising that many if not most might decide to rescind them all hoping someone will come back with something cleaner and more memorable.
