>>It has a distinctly religous connotation
 
No more so than "revolution" has a communist connotation for some folks I'd expect.  But you do have a valid point that I didn't consider.
 
It's the underlying meaning of the words that's more important than the words themselves.
 
So let's see if Mr. Thesaurus has a less loaded synonym....
 
Reformation
Synonyms: improvement, renovation, reorganization, restructuring, overhaul, restoration, rectification
 
 
Ah - there we go:   The American RESTORATION.

Hey, I like that. Compared to “revolution”, “restoration” is a relatively benign word. However, it encompasses the gamut of a peaceful political solution—i.e. voting the Marxists out at the ballot box—to a forceful revolution. Another component to the word is that it points no fingers that would arouse people’s defensive mechanisms.

I was speaking with my sister the other day. She rejects the Marxist label despite her belief that she has a right to other people’s money and everyone should earn equally. I try to steer clear of politics with her because all she does is parrot demrat talking points. In any case, she bemoaned that America is not what it was. My point is that even some of the demrat “useful idiots” are yearning for at some semblance of a retuen to traditional America. I think “restoration” is a word these folks will not deem offensive.

Where appropriate I will use the term “American Restoration” whenever I speak about taking back America. Maybe you and I, LomanBill, can start a trend.
