Probably easier to use the Wikipedia webpage.
Dwight Eisenhower was a moderate, who was nudged by Douglas Southall Freeman (a Virginian Southern Democrat, personally a conservative man) to run on the 1952 Republican ticket.
Robert A. Taft was definitely a midwest conservative.
Barry Goldwater was a conservative with a few/sometimes liberal leanings - sort of one side of a coin that had Daniel Patrick Moynihan on the other, as a Democrat with some conservative leanings.
Henry M. Jackson was a Southern Conservative Democrat - you could say, an early day G. W. Bush -type "Republican."
Gerald Ford was a midwest slightly-liberal to more-of-a-moderate and sometimes-conservative Republican.
Ronald Reagan understood, that our worthy American Heritage and History, was essential as a reference with which to explain the principals of our foundations, and what we ought to do. Basically, he could state and support our purpose, liberty, and have many people with him on the same page.
Reagan was a magnet for Reagan Democrats.
Then it's a piece of technological wizardry that I don't understand, implying our FRiend, Russkiy Mirovich, has technical training beyond my level of education.
I wonder if they teach how to do that at Russian propaganda school?
linMcHlp: "Dwight Eisenhower was a moderate..."
Every one of those old photos shows a traditional conservative Republican, with some of them noted as famous conservatives, including Howard Taft in 1952, Barry Goldwater in 1964, Ronald Reagan in 1980, Newt Gingrich in 1994 and Donald Trump in 2016.
They were not "neo-cons", regardless of how often our Russkiy Mirovich propagandists claim otherwise.
