In [[politics]], a '''platform''' refers to the core beliefs and stances on various issues held by a political party.
Each individual stance mentioned in a platform is called a '''plank'''. A specific topic may (and often does) have several planks devoted to it. For example, on the topic of [[abortion]], general opposition to abortion (except in limited circumstances, such as to save the mother's life) would be one plank, while opposition to Federal funding of [[Planned Parenthood]] would be another plank.
