A party platform refers to a political party's formal statement of its basic principles, objectives, and positions on major issues. It is a list of the actions which a political party supports in order to appeal to the general public for the purpose of attracting vote.

What is the Republican Party platform?
The Republican Party's conservatism involves support for free market capitalism, free enterprise, business, a strong national defense, deregulation, restrictions on labor unions, social-conservative policies, and traditional values, usually with a Christian foundation.

What is the platform of the Democratic Party?
Protecting Workers' Fundamental Rights. The Democratic Party believes that when workers are strong, America is strong. Democrats will make it easier for workers, public and private, to exercise their right to organize and join unions.

The republicans certainly are NOT living up to their platform, Trump's sanctions have turned the 'free market' upside down. To say nothing of their hypocrisy when it comes to family values, while they put children in cages...
And there was a last minute change wrt Russian policy... we still don't know who did that, maybe Muller will tell us this week?

In the UK, the candidates run for membership under their party's written manifesto.

When they represent a party, do American pols also sign on to its manifesto?

Do American parties have a manifesto?

Not trick questions. I don't know the answers.
