If you are suggesting that conservatism is solely economic issues that is a recipe for failure.

The only winning formula for conservatism in the United States is Ronald Maximus Reagan's Three-Legged-Stool. Social issues are just as important as the fiscal and national defense ones. If libertarians try to pogo-stick on only one, it ain't gonna work.

exactly We have people thinking that they can be liberal on social issues and then state they're conservatives, they are not. Conservatism is social and fiscal libertarian is liberal socially and they're actually more liberal and communist than most Dem I know. Liberals are liberal on social and fiscal why some conservatives let the other groups into pour platform or use our sites so it's not this site when JR reads their posts. Let them have their own convention

I made no such suggestion. Actually, merely raising the questions here for the purpose of discussion. FR is a place for conservatives to discuss issues. I'm well aware of that.
