So do you see any way of recovering what we've lost Jorj?
Yes, but it isn't an easy answer and it isn't a quick fix. We will need to employ similar tactics as were used to get us to where we are now. Sixty years ago, nobody would have accepted the level of socialism that we have today. People in hollywood were blacklisted for what is now not only common, but celebrated. Now, if you are conservative/tea party/republican, you can be blacklisted very quickly in hollywood. This wasn't done with revolutionary changes, it was done with small incremental changes to the system. The path to those incremental changes was paved with the progressive education system. We will not win back what we have lost with revolutionary changes. We will win it with small incremental changes. You and I will likely not benefit much from the changes that happen today. Hopefully our children and grandchildren will.

BTW here are the three core principles of the Tea Party Patriots.

"Fiscal Responsibility, Constitutionally Limited Government, Free Markets"

funny, those have been my core political principles since I became politically aware.
