// Reclaim Conservatism

Here is a good list of the 10 Conservative Principles.   It is from the Russell Kirk Center

First, the conservative believes that there exists an enduring moral order.
Second, the conservative adheres to custom, convention, and continuity.

This is a lesson on why Muslticulturalism does not work and should be banned.  We are a Melting Pot, not a nation of little communities.  Before Multiculturalism, Thanksgiving was not a problem and no one complained about the respect that the Native Americans and Pilgrims had and celebrated the prosperity of the Pilgrims after they [...]

That is what the Heritage Foundation Young President’s Club asked Robert Bluey and Mary Katherine Ham to discuss.   This is  a long video, almost an hour long, so give yourself some time to watch it.   I think that they came up with some very good solutions to how to get the conservative message to the [...]

I wanted to let the elections sink in before I said anything about, or do a long post about it.   I want to congratulate Obama for a splendid campaign.   He had the organization and the rhetoric that people heard and wanted to follow.   He stated focused and did not make many mistakes.   So I want [...]
