Today I got an email offer for the AmEx Delta Platinum card again! This time some 40k miles for getting the "new" card. Is this possilbe? THe fine print mentioned limitations if you have a current AmEx Delta card, but I didn't see anything about having had one before.
Most of the time it is only once per card (or must wait 2 years between cards).
Step 1 - you did get plat delta card last year
Step 2 - get gold card this year
Step 3 - get reserve card next year
Rise and repeat each 3 year cycle and get lots O'points
There are 35k GOLD point deals all over like:

Keep in mind you can do a personal and a small biz card each time on the above churn.
As INGY says your credit is your most important asset so know you can do it safely!
