Taking previous posts in mind there is an appreciation of the ardent fervor with which the INGO community expresses their passion for various platforms in regards to conservatism. Conservatives cannot afford to be alphas; rather they must be apex predators that live solely at the top of the food chain of personal liberty and the dignity of the individual. Though many regard ardent fervor and passion as fuses which ignite irrational arguments and dug in positions, I can appreciate fervor and passion as bedrocks of stewardship. As has been pointed out, the genesis of conservatism is to safeguard something held dear to ensure the next generation is able to protect and pass on something greater than was protected and passed on to them.
Conservatism may best be likened to the selection of various cuts of beef at a fine steakhouse; all prime cut from the same source, mostly seasoned or prepared the same way with some finer nuances or pairings that complement the finish of the dish. All are delicious and palatable, one may be the favorite and most preferred and none are terrible.
My brand of conservatism should not matter and your brand of conservatism does not matter. At this point, in an electoral cycle, the only conservatism that matters to me is UNIFIED conservatism. Instead of focusing on the small things individuals find in disagreement, focus on what is most agreed right now - the defeat of the Clinton machine.
