It takes all kinds to make up a community, we draw on each other's strengths and positive attributes. All sides of the conservative curve have input.
IMO, it is best to allow other points of view in order to understand what the group as a whole wants and needs. The World is changing around us daily. We can't live in the past or isolate ourselves from the future.
We have to make our ideology appealing to the majority of the population and we won't do that by being cynical or anti-social.
Reagan was the best teacher we have ever had in this respect, and hopefully others will follow his example and learn to treat others with respect and regard to their philosophy. Through communication and statesmanship, is where the most hearts and minds are won.

We have to make our ideology appealing to the majority of the population and we won't do that by being cynical or anti-social. We won't do that by compromising on our ideals either. We need people who can change the packaging, not the gift. Lately, we've had people running the GOP that are all packaging, no gift.
That needs to change.
