How did you get to be so naive?
I watch Frank Capra movies, I read the classics, and watch John Wayne and other westerns. Where men are men, women are ladies, truth is truth, right is right, and wrong is wrong.
I read the bible, and based on all of these things much like Reagan I see America as the shining city on a hill. I see what we were before progressives came to power, and see hope that we can return to that time. Not through violence, not through incivility, not through attacks and lies. I see it coming back through peace, truth, civility, and Americans doing the right thing because it is the right thing.
If that makes me naive, then so be it. As judge Luttig once said, “if I am ever accused of being a Christian, may there be enough evidence to convict me.” I will gladly take the name of naivety in the sense in which I described, and may there be enough evidence to convict me.
