I get e-mails from the Reagan Library because I am a supporter. This one seemed rather timely. Can I get an Amen?!
“My friends, the time has come to start acting to bring about the great conservative majority party we
know is waiting to be created. The job is ours and the job must be done. If not by us, who? If not now, when?”~Ronald Reagan 1977
Here then, are the core conservative principles or talking points that Ronald Reagan defined at CPAC, in Stump Speeches, Addresses from the Oval Office and in writing because the heart of the issue was “principled politics”:
a. Scale back the size of the federal government
b. Reduce taxes, deregulate, cut government spending and remove government intrusion
c. Return to the people the freedoms usurped from them by bureaucrats
d. Support the free market “as the greatest provider of the people”
e. Defend liberty and the Constitution in order to recapture our dreams and our pride as Americans
f. Restore American military strength to preserve our freedom
g. Protect and enhance the values that strengthen and promote individual freedom
