I think you are spot on with saying “active in pulling the right toward…” but I’m not so sure about “…the ideal”. Conservatives are, by the very nature, hugely independent and free thinking. Most conservatives I know will disagree with you just to prove that they are not sheep. We each have individual ideals, but not collective ones. I don’t think we’ll every get 100 of the political right in a room together and get an agreement on anything other than the following things
personal freedom as preferably to authoritarian command
something vague like ‘Christian Prinicples’ or ‘Western Tradition’
Agreed about Right Wing / Economically literate. I think this is one of the biggest tell tale signs of a lefty (just tax the rich derp derp derp)
Agreed about conservatives but I think we are more defined by believing society form from the bottom up via free association. We could argue this all day though.
Willing to be active, absolutely critical.
Yes, the group will then, bottom up via free association, nurture attitudes. What ever they are, we need to wait and see and, given the nature of the right, will more likely created what we don’t want by trying to push onto people that which we do want.
