I wish we had some constitutional conservatives who could articulate a vision of what the US could and should be that well. Could it be because they aren’t really passionately dedicated to our priorities, instead just to winning?

Have faith, I felt the same way too until Farage came along.

It seems to me he resonates with the voters for the following reasons:

1) He can communicate effectively and with charisma.
2) He truly likes and respects the average citizen. He is genuinely comfortable mixing with the people. He doesn’t talk to them, he speaks with them. He enjoys fighting for them, not for himself.
3) He has core beliefs and he exposes them with conviction. No apologizes, no holding back.

The last American politician with this charm was Ronald Reagan. Since then we’ve had a string of teleprompter self centered political hacks who want to rule others.
