@RedBaron I didn’t say it does but I’m saying it’s not a bad idea given the absolute trash of choices we have had in the past id say close to 20+ years he would be a reasonable choice and better than the trash we had to choose from in the better part of 20 years. Because let’s be honest here... our choices sucked

@QuixoticSoul eh well according to you anyone who has even the slightest conservative view point is a “retard” so I don’t think your opinion is that valuable or valid

@Ozuye502 No, there are tons of intelligent conservatives - it’s not so long ago that the conservative movement was dominated by right wing intellectuals, instead of lowest-denominator attuned media personalities.
But then Buckley died and the kooks and bigots he spent years chasing out crawled back in.
I miss actual conservatives. They were educated, sharp, principled, and elitist - but also elite. I didn’t always agree with them but I respected that crowd. Now you just get these mongs that are loud and aggressively stupid, with no depth or intellectual rigor.

@QuixoticSoul The intelligent conservative politician really died before Buckley. GHW Bush might have been the last of the breed. Eisenhower, Nelson Rockefeller, Charles Percy - there was a great tradition of thoughtful conservatism. I blame Reagan for the start of this spiral that has continued to this day.
