Dear Republicans,
With the 2012 election
behind us, we look to 2014 to turn things around. The blaming and pointing of
fingers began even before polls closed on election night. Many in the party
suggest a move toward the center is the only way to draw in young people. That
in my opinion, is the worst decision the GOP could make.
As an 18 year old conservative
Republican a move toward the center would be the final nail in the coffin for
the Republican Party. Young people are finally waking up to the fact that our nation
is in trouble and many of our freedoms our quickly eroding before our eyes.
It’s not the policies
that we stand for that turn the young people away but instead the attempts of
pandering is why many look to the left.
If Republicans turn
away from our stances on traditional marriage, our promises NOT to raise taxes,
and even the sanctity of life what is
the difference between us and the left? Nothing, beside the left also promising
“free” stuff.
We must not abandon the
values this nation was founded upon and the principles that led us through our
darkest times. We need a restoration in this nation and party; not a moderation.
I urge you,
Republicans, as a concerned young American, to stay true to your beliefs, to
always fight for life, marriage, fiscal responsibly and most importantly our
Constitution, And always remember why you serve…
As Henry Clay once
said, “The Constitution of the United States was made not merely for the
generation that then existed, but for posterity—unlimited, undefined, endless,
perpetual posterity.”

Far from it,
ReplyDeleteA rational move towards the issues and away rhetoric is exactly what the Republican Party needs.
If you want your party to lose more elections keep campaigning on Abortion, Raising Military expenditures, and not tax increases.
The GOP lost every swing state not because it was too moderate, but because it was too out of touch with the people.
I voted Johnson, not because Romney was too moderate. But because I believe that fiscal conservatism requires raising taxes as one aspect of balancing the budget.
