It would be great if the GOP realized this
It looks promising. My only concern is that this movement seems to be of a secular/libertarian bent. In itself not bad but ask these young kids what they think about abortion and same sex marriage. I suspect there will be a divergence.
Supporting the Constitution is meaningless if they’re not willing to support the pillars of natural law and Judeo-Christian society on which the Constitution is based.
Ping.
Does anybody know where that photo is from? That’s awesome!
Young conservatives maybe. Young republicans not so much.
Young Republican official: Tea Party is full of drooling, senile angry bullies who are ‘mad at everything’; Update: Tweets deleted

LOL! I certainly can’t argue with that. Like the soviet May Day parades of old.
Is this by the same Bob Barr that is now running for Congress again after having left there because of being outpaced in a newly redrawn district that included John Linder?
He was a three-term Congressman taking Buddy Darden’s seat in the 1994 era; he was a US Attorney but fired by Bill Clinton who fired all of them when he was elected (wonder why)....
I’ve seen Adventure Outdoors in Smyrna, GA hold fundraisers for him more than once. I remember him as largely conservative, but the very big question I have about him, one that I asked the owners of Adventure Outdoors more than once with no reply, is what are his reasons for going to work for the American Civil Liberties Union as a lawyer after he was essentially forced out of Congress.
That bothers me much more than just a little.
The March for Life, which, yearly, commemorates the roe v wade deal, grows every year. In that cold weather they lately get about 400,000 people, which, if it were a liberal cause, would gain much free media attn, but as it is it just garners their fear and loathing
I am guessing that’s where the photo is from
The median age of the attendees is early twenties, which, I paraphrase dub all’s apocalypse now character, must ‘scare the s out of the libs
It should be very encouraging
thanks....comrade barry looks SO much at home in that environment..doesnt he.
young communists for obama, perhaps
“Supporting the Constitution is meaningless if they’re not willing to support the pillars of natural law and Judeo-Christian society on which the Constitution is based.”
AMEN! Libertarians are basically anarchists...especially on moral issues.
Opps!
Ping to THIS thread
conservatism is now younger and more diverse than ever.
It could be a March for Life rally? Not sure about the one from this past January, as they had 4” of snow the day before the march.
2014 March for Life event.
I do take heart in the youthful participation in the March for Life. It is very encouraging. I believe that the youth as a whole will eventually come to the truth regarding abortion and will rightly denounce the generations that came before them that supported it.
It will take time I think. Decades. And perhaps this movement which was described in the article which is focused on the constitutionality of privacy and rejecting government surveillance will eventually evolve to encapsulate these moral truths. There is hope for that. Currently, however, it seems the attention they receive is because they advocate for what amounts to be “non-controversial” issues.
