Why, when your opponent is the party of incompetence and perversion, should it be an uphill battle?

Its because we ceded the infrastructure of the war of ideas. Schools and universities, the news and entertainment media.

Who controls these controls the politics. We’re always just hanging on for the next election, hoping for a miracle that will turn the Titanic around while our enemies raise and educate our children, write our history, decide what happened and what didn’t, whats important and what isn’t, and define what is good and what is bad.

The road back to sanity is a long road that requires us to regain control of the education of our children, establish news sources that we trust, and forgive me if I suggest you get your family into church. If the church of your childhood has gone over to the dark side, find another. But take control of the moral education as well as the academic education of your family.

Great post! Good analysis.

The reason the average millennial knows more about climate change than the US Constitution is the education system and the media.

No mention here of rampant voter fraud which seems to be occuring in an increasing number of states.

PLUS, I’ve been visitning my 100 year old mother in her assisted living facility this week and also chatting with some of the other residents. I really don’t think that 1 in 5 should be voting. But, we all know that all of them are with the assistance of Democrat operatives.

They’re about to cede the country to foreigners. Republicans must know they will not be the electoral beneficiary of Amnesty. The US will be harmed immeasurably yet the Republicans forge ahead with the Amnesty agenda.

Republicans have ceded their brains to Democrats.

Your post is one of the most sensible that I have read here in some time. Most of the posts here seem to be gloating in advance that we lose another presidential election. There seems to be some perverse pleasure in pulling down the only chance at regaining sobriety in government.

I disagree.

2012 Presidential Election - White Voters
Romney - 59%
Obama - 39%

It's “an uphill battle” because we spent the last 30 years importing Socialist voters.

It's “an uphill battle” because the Republican leadership spends more time attacking Conservatives than Democrats.

It's “an uphill battle” because 4 million Conservatives stayed home in 2012 and refused to vote for our most recent center-left presidential candidate.
