Actually, without adherence to the fundamental principles, you will obtain none of that. You’ve given away the battle before you’ve even engaged in it.

Preach your principles at the State level. Restrict the federal level to only those powers specified in the Constitution. Keep in mind that "general welfare" is not permission for the feds to do anything and everything. We got into our present mess via an overbroad interpretation of promoting the "general welfare".

Again, keeping to the extreme position will keep us on the extremities.
