Never heard of such a thing. Are you sure? Where is information on it. That's like Jewish nazis, or a Native American republican.

A platform is essentially a 'mission statement' for a candidate or for a party. Sometimes the 'platform' is made up of "planks" ... or smaller goals that are a part of the whole.\nA Republican Platform might be: The goal of the party is to:\n A. Increase National Security with tighter borders and military efforts in unstable world regions. \nB. Hold taxes low to encourage business and job growth and strong tax revenue that will decrease the deficit. \nC. Encourage legislation to strengthen bio-ethics in the realm of human reproduction. \nD. Encourage legislation to stimulate greater stockholder voice in corporate governance E. Encourage legislation to improve public schools through greater real-world competition for students among the schools -- provide more choice to families of students.\n\nAs you can imagine; a Democrat platform would  read very differently. And, different candidates within a party might add or reject various "planks" of the platform.

I do. You have me tagged right at the nail. I would have been a Republican because I admire their tough stances on crime and their fiscal responsibility. However, the evangelicals have taken a hold of the GOP alienating many potential members who aren't pro-life or anti-gay. I'm a Democrat because of many reasons but I disagree with them on some things, especially with the liberals. I'm a Goldwater conservative at heart and would like to see many people embrace fiscal conservatism. I do believe in God but I abhor how the Republican party has used Christianity to get ahead in the political arena and the evangelicals meddling in politics it's simply wrong. I feel sometimes like I have no party.

Nominal Republican, but I have voted Libertarian in the past.  Given the fact that I really don't care for government and am able to handle most problems on my own, I can't see myself voting for a party that loves to be Big Brother like the socialist Democrats do.

A Congressional caucus is specific group of members that meet for a purpose.  All Republicans, for example, would be a caucus when they meet to elect their leadership.  Black members have long had a powerful caucus.  Any group of members with a common interest or desire often form caucuses to create support for legislation or action.

I consider myself republican and I believe it is but a blatant lie to say that the republican party denies basic rights to gays. They just dont support liberal issues such as same-sex marriage because conservative republicans think that it is immoral and wrong. But that is politics - the interplay of power.

Republican In Name Only-RINO.  Someone who believes in freedom, but believes in huge government spending. A moderate, meaning that they don't take a firm position on anything.\n\nNow if you believe in low taxes, low restrictions on business, freedom, respect for all religiions and believe the founders had no problems allowing it in the public square then you are a full-blown conservative.  Next time your accused of such throw this back at them with pride and watch their face, it's kinda fun

To quote the official Republican platform, in their own words...\n\n"The supreme purpose of our foreign policy must be to maintain our freedom in a peaceful international environment in which the United States and our allies\nand friends are secure against military threats, and democratic governments are flourishing in a world of increasing prosperity."\n\n"Defeating terrorism requires the United States to:\n* help establish stable and democratic governments in nations such as Afghanistan and Iraq that once supported terrorism;\n* support front-line states and coalition partners;\n* deepen counterterrorism, intelligence, and law enforcement cooperation with allies and friends; and\n* energetically promote democracy, especially in the Broader Middle East."

Libertarian in the U.S., maybe I'd be a Republican if I live there. In Mexico I'am a neoliberal of  the PAN.

I'm with you. I've been a conservative Republican for about 20 years and I have now officially terminated my support and membership with the RNC. The Republican party has done nothing for me in the past 5 years. And the Democratic Party certainly has done nothing for me EVER!\n\nI'm voting Independent in 2008.\n\nIf you are a conservative I encourage you to look into the Constitution Party. http://www.constitutionparty.com/

It is a red herring.  The Republican agenda of late seems to have origins deeply rooted in fascist ideology and several blogs and radio shows have recently made mention of this. Thus the Republican spin machine is trying to divert attention away from their own faults and accusing their perceived enemies as being fascist.  Classic Republican strategy, when you are guilty, accuse someone else.
