Nonsence. Conservatism as defined as those who conserve the principals of classical liberalism are on the ropes. We only stemmed the tide during the Reagan era. People want to be taken care of by government these days. No politician runs for office without promising how they will be best at making the government solve your problems.

I agree with you.

Aside from the fact that liberalism possesses psychological trappings and rewards that are powerfully alluring, if not addictive, we have a structural problem.

Those who depend on government largess now outnumber those who fund it by quite a margin. State, municipal, and federal employees, retirees, unions, those in education, non-profits, and corporate entities dependent upon government contracts, all vote monolithically liberal, and their numbers are growing. Even agriculture has been bought off. We have already reached a tipping point. Perhaps this year we will dodge a bullet, but only because the Dems have put up such horrible, flawed candidates. Our victory will be temporary at best.

First, we must call the enemy what it is! Is is MARXISM!

Liberals are never satisfied with any program. They are always demanding more. Why? Answer: Because it is Marxism that is the nuclear fuel rod that drives them. ( Even if they are unaware of it.

Think of it like a train line. Individual liberal programs are merely train stops. MARXISM is the final destination!

My next concern are our government K-12 schools, colleges, and universities. The Marxists and their armies of Useful Idiots are hard at work indoctrinating the next generation of voters.

Conservatives still have a few powerful tools. One is talk radio. It is time we start pressuring the Big Three ( Rush, Sean, and OReilly) into using the word that fits: MARXISM. We, their audience, need to pressure these guys. They must start educating their readership about what it is that drives the Democratic Party and the liberals that have infected every corner of our culture.

Conservatives also have money. We could, if someone with leadership could organize it, SHUT DOWN every government K-12 school in this nation. We could, if we wanted, open private scholarship foundations that would award private vouchers to children attending private **conservative** schools. With today's technology every child could have access to a world class ( but inexpensive) **conservative** education.

If we could get our nation's kids OUT of our government school indoctrination camps, within 12 short years we could have armies of kids on campus prepared to defend classical liberalism before their Marxist college professors, and ready to stare down the communist administrators of their universities. Within 20 years these young adults would be taking over key positions in the media, arts, professions, and especially in our courts and legislatures.
