| Message | No, our view there has always been that as long as we had publicly held defense industries we needed no restrictions on foreign investment. We used "never a majority share" because that was how to get things passed. This being a campaign platform, not really expected to pass, we are expressing what we would like to see. |

| Random fact: Any RP law granting extraordinary "emergency powers" or dictator-like powers to a government must be passed by at least a 2/3rds majority, but (like all RP laws) may always be overturned by a simple majority vote of the legislature. |
