My three basic problems with the conservative movement are a habitual alliance between the establishment Republicans and the Elites, the racist element, and the small government theory that we should not work on things that need to be done.  I have not exactly been shy to denounce all three.  I note you are not an advocate of the racist or elites elements.  The Tea Party is an attempt to free the conservative base from elites.  I noted a prior post where you admitted it is not a good thing to let problems sit around and get worse.  You have denounced racism a number of times.

In theory, we should be on the same side.

My problem is that many in the middle of the country pursue the agenda set by the elites and racists.  While in many ways the Tea Party is ahead of the Democrats in fighting elite influence, still the elite influence is sending jobs abroad to the profit of a few, and that in fighting the minorities the racists ended up hurting the poor of the Xers and Millennials.  If you didn’t start saving way back when the influence of the Progressive Era was still strong, you find the fruit of your labor going to the elites instead of a retirement account.

I want to shake the typical person from the middle of the country and demand he wake up, to ask who he is really helping.
