GOP Platform Oddness

As a matter of principle, Republicans oppose any attempts to create race-based governments within the United States, as well as any domestic governments not bound by the Constitution or the Bill of Rights.

Race-based governments? Domestic Governments not bound by the constitution? Can someone explain to me what this refers to?

Update: For the record, I am against both of the above too. I am also against a government run entirely by Dachshund hounds - I just have no need to state it, as there is no chance of it happening.

The fact that they included this in the platform suggests some irrational / conspiratorial fear of something – I’m just not sure of what.
