I don't define conservative, by looking at a person who is called conservative and seeing what it is that he believes. I define conservative with the Constitution, liberty.

Well, that's a difference between us. I live in the world of 21st century reality and understand the history that has gotten us, where we are today, as a nation. I also don't associate modern conservatism, strictly with Constitutional principles. Before we can return America to a more traditional form of government, in line with the intentions of the Founding Fathers, we must work within the political system, to make the changes necessary, to reach the goal of a smaller and less intrusive federal government. Conservatism believes in incremental steps, because conservatives understand the slow process of politics.

You tlak more like a constitutionalist and not a conservative. If you want to get America, back to a strict form of constitutional government, in a hurry, that requires a revolution.
