For starters, after decades of useful idiot production brought to us by Hollywood, mainstream media, public schools, and the university system, conservatism has a serious image problem. To the average person who doesn’t pay much attention to politics, the word conservative conjures up images of stuffy, Brooks Brother wearing, old white dudes riding in limos down Wall St, or Scrooge McDuck swimming
around in his tower of gold coins. Well, I’ve never been in a limo, I don’t have any gold coins, and I’m not old…yet. Most are just normal people working to provide a life for themselves and their families. The old, liberal perpetuated notions have run their course and it’s time for them to be retired to history’s trash heap. Conservatism has a new face…the face of young people like me who are pi**ed off that a wannabe oppressive ideology, fueled by envy, is in the process of destroying a great country based on the brilliant concept of self-governance and liberty. Second, I have this burning desire to be a thorn in the side of liberalism, communism, Marxism, socialism, progressivism, or whatever Orwellian newspeak term they rebrand themselves with in the future. Who’s with me?
