There is GREAT, made to order political campaign here!

I would drive home the idea that one policy led to success while the other was an abject failure, and then ask when it comes to matters of importance to our way of life which result would you prefer, success or failure?

I feel that you have it right. Key word is “feel” because I don’t really know.
The dude had nothing on Pol Pot.
from 1976–1979. Pol Pot's leadership, in which he attempted to "cleanse" the country, resulted in the deaths of an estimated 1.7–2.5 million people.
