What is a conservative?  That is a question asked by many people in our country today. The reason these people don’t know is because the Republican Party doesn’t know in a lot of cases.  We, as a party, must establish our identity and stop being caught up in the mushy middle.  The mushy middle lost John McCain the 2008 election and does absolutely nothing for our country.  In other words, if you stand in the middle of the road, you will get run over!

Being a conservative is basically being intellectually-inclined, and thinking rationally. Most importantly, it’s thinking with your brain, not your heart. Letting passion drive your arguments is one thing, but letting it run your thought process is a whole other story.  Most of the time when you debate or discuss an issue with the typical liberal, you will hear arguments such as “I feel”, or, “we all need to”, or, a very common one is, “they cheated to get where they are”.  You see, liberals feel that anyone who is at the top had to step on someone to get there.  They want the people to believe that all achievers didn’t rightfully earn their wealth or their status.  Liberals feel everyone is the same and equal.  That’s the attitude that will make this country a living nightmare.  We live in the greatest country in the world, and liberals don’t realize that we have walls keeping people out; most countries have walls keeping people in.  If you let this country run on what separates us from the rest of the world, then we will continue to be the elite among the rest.  If you don’t like capitalism or the Constitution, then get the hell out!  This country doesn’t need to be fundamentally changed - it needs to get back to what made and makes it great!

THIS IS WHY WE’RE RIGHT AND THEY’RE WRONG
