I would rather lead with substantial ideas, than try to fit every diversity into the ring.
Not every diversity. I’m talking about conservative purity. One has to hold office to make change, and the US demographics and social constructs have changed, like it or not.
Ronald Reagan knew the art of compromise, as did our Founding Fathers. Things will not change unless we get more diverse base to our side through showing them the way. I may be wrong about Rubio, but I pray to God that if he does pull over enough former and “new” dems, he can change hearts and thinking.
I’m not so naive to think that anyone less than an 80 percenter, as Reagan used to say, could pull over enough voters.
