I do not support a streamlined agenda. The platform and bylaws committees
<br>
have busted their ass and deserve to have their work heard. If the bylaws

committee feels otherwise, I respect that, but as chair of the platform
<br>
committee, I know what we have done, and I will not flush other people's

time down the drain.
