Sorry for replying late. Have been avoiding FR as part of the healing process... LOL
I’m glad we’re on the same page.
The problem is that ‘conservative think thanks’ actually also use different approaches and some of their positions may conflict with each others. Cato is much more libertarian. Federalist Society is more about what they think was the founders’ intents, so outside what’s in the Constitution, I don’t know if they can say much. The religious-base groups (Family Focus, etc.) are obviously from their own view, and not necessarily coherent with those in Hoover, or AEI.
I agree about rebuilding for long term, not short term only. One point that I think need to be highlighted is it’s time to take back social sciences and humanities. We’ve been neglecting them too long, and have been mocking them too much without realizing that they are dominating young people’s mind.
Paudio—For purposes of taking our country back from the Marxists these think tanks are irrelevent. Without the formation of a single entity, with the charter to draw up a plan to take back America, everything else is a waste of time.
To fix the humanites and social sciences issues one must fix public education. The left controls it. I see this as the biggest challenge in the battle for America.
