democracy at work... 2/3rds? really?

@Quattro!

It bothers me that in a supposed secular nation any platform would use “god” in the Christian sense of the word to shape public policy that affects people of all religions or non-religion.

As far as Jerusalem, the issue is that other governments and groups (Hamas) have fought to eliminate Israel and create a Palestinian state or multiple Islamic states with Jerusalem serving as their capital. Probably not a good idea to eliminate that wording from your platform when Israel is about all we got for friends in that part of the world.

I really gotta stop clicking on these threads

Agreed. I try to stay out of this arena here completely because 99% of the time it’s like talking to a brick wall.
