Which ideals would you compromise first to start pitching this 'big tent'? Perhaps the party should start with its position on currently illegal drugs. I think this issue turns off a lot of folks who have been indoctrinated by the drug war propaganda machine. Lots of people think we'd have heroin addicts coming out of the woodwork if drugs were re-legalized. Perhaps supporting a little gun control would be ok to satisfy those who think inanimate objects are responsible for gun violence. Being against government administrated 'free' education is another sore spot, and then there's the party's stance on the Socialist Security pyramid scheme. Heck, soon enough the party could be interchangeable with the Republicrats and the Demopublicans, but would have a lot of members. I'm sorry if it sounds like I'm quibbling here, but how would the party become a 'big tent' without giving up its rightful claim of being the party of principle? Regards, Barb
