Look, I just read the first sentence and I just got the feeling like many of us are approaching this as the liberals do. Like the people are the problem and we have to fix them to make them do what we want.

If anything we have failed to make our case for conservatism, not necessarily any one specific problem. Not actually trying to engage one on one with people in dialogue about why a conservative world view is superior to a liberal worldview. And do it in a way that isn’t automatically putting the person on the defensive.

Just to start getting them thinking, and questioning why they believe what they believe and why. And maybe giving them something to think about that’s a better way for them to go. It’s not only about pointing out liberalism’s flaws, but the benefits of the conservative worldview.

And perhaps they are getting mixed messages about us because we’ve got RINOs and liberal republicans who don’t seem to be on board with the conservative world view we promote.
