The DNC wipes its, um, feet with that charter. It is meaningless twaddle to them, just aired out and waved around every few years, as if the Third Way neocon neoliberal New Democrats even pay attention to it. That's why I am not really moved by the committees formed to hammer out platform changes. The current Democratic Party doesn't really care about that platform, it is just for show.
