What's the difference between "I have a plan" and "I do have a plan"?
I wanted to know why some affirmations have the "do", I thought it was only necessary to use it in negative and interrogative sentences. (http://translate.google.com.br/)

If someone says:
"Why don't you have a plan for a situation like this?"
You can say...
"I DO have a plan!"

I'm not knowledgeable on grammar but, "I do have a plan" would be said if who you were talking to didn't believe you had a real plan. Adding the "do" adds emphasis, but more importantly it serves to convince others who might be skeptical.

The one with "do" has more emphasis that you have a plan. "Do" gives more sureness, impact and emphasis to the sentence.
