She's completely intractable in the face of a right wing ideology that is crumbling to pieces.

Au contraire. The right wing ideology of free minds and free markets has prevailed for more than 300 years.

In even your short lifetime you've seen the collapse of the Soviet Union and market forces liberalizing Communist China.

You were too young to see the collapse of slavery (one of our greatest victories), the collapse of Keynesian economics, and the collapse of Command and Control all over the world.

Universal suffrage is probably something you take for granted, more's the pity.

We've seen "isms" come and we've seen them go. Free minds and free markets prevail because they, and only they, work in the real world.
