The Constitution hardly needs a "platform" to reiterate its commitment to limited government; on this issue, the Constitution speaks for itself. What is needed is a practical mechanism for enforcing the constitutionally-defined limitations on government and the separation of powers. It has become amply apparent that the three branches of government can no longer be counted upon to voluntarily adhere to their constitutionally-prescribed role, and that the system of "checks and balances" has been corrupted beyond recognition. Whether the answer is a federal initiative process or something else, the principal challenge to any platform is to fashion a meaningful mechanism for returning the power of government to the people.
