"Because some would want to know if if the author has the gravitas and the game to see this through. Words are cheap and "ideas" about how to restore the constitution are a dime a dozen. It's not the plan, it's the planners. Every Superbowl team has a game plan but I want to know who the quarterback will be."

Here is how I am going to tackle your questions by punting the ball back to you.

Newt Gingrich will go down in history as a Hall of Fame quarterback. The Gipper will qualify as the all time second greatest quarterback behind only General George. And the Gipper qualifies also qualifies as one of the greatest coaches in history. Yet we are not really measurably closer to scoring a touch down than before they got into the game. If you stop talking long enough to read and think through this effort, we will be that much closer to reaching the goal.

I realized there may be an implied question in your questions. No, it isn't going to be me that leads the team or gets us over the goal line. I have an all star quarterback in mind, and if we had had this plan under the Gipper or when Newt was in his prime, we would have already scored. We need cheer leaders and performers to recruit the coach or the capitain. Using this game plan, they will take care of the rest. What we don't need, is meddlers incessantly muddying the water.

You seem like a nice person and are sincere in what you are doing, so I'm not going to pile on you but I will say I think you need to grow a thicker skin or get some skills in public relations.

My observations have been reasonable and polite, yet you respond by making comments such as "If you stop talking long enough to read..." and referring to those offering constructive criticism as "meddlers". Wow.

I have read all your literature and commented on previous threads, so I'll reiterate them one last time and move on.

There is nothing wrong with your approach except that it is ass backwards. Yo believe all you have to do is put a "real conservative" up in a primary and that they will miraculously win that and then the general election.

You studiously ignore the fact that the rino's you wish to replace have been consistently chosen in the primaries by the republican voters and then by all the voters in the general election. I'd bet that more conservative candidates have run in at least some of those primaries and consistently lost. There is a reason for this and that you refuse to admit this painfully obvious fact is why your effort would probably fail.

You have to change the hearts and minds of the voters first to prepare the ground for success in electing your messiahs. The ground for conservative success in America in the last two decades was prepared by Reagan (who won because Carter was so inept) Fox News and media individuals like Rush Limbaugh. They moved the middle which translated into success at the polls.
