You are correct on all counts, but, Reagan didn’t have to face the dire situation that we face now that our country can go under.

You are correct on all counts, but, Reagan didn’t have to face the dire situation that we face now that our country can go under.

The ends, especially in this situation, does not justify the means.

In taking your approach, you'd immediately alienate at least the Social Conservatives, and if you are seriously pushing that the fiscal issues should be elevated above all other issues, your strong military conservatives would also be alienated.

In order to win this war against the left, we will need all of our friends in conservative circles ENGAGED.

That means we all have to act like adults, figuring out what is most important to each faction, aceepting that, and being willing to let go of the less important.

This is the only approach that will work.

We will fail otherwise.
