The New Republicans

By Joseph Evans - July 11, 2005 - The Washington Times

Journalists are creating public awareness of an emerging class of people called New Republicans. No longer operating under the proverbial radar screen, they are people who value family, limited government, self-help and responsibility, and an entrepreneurial spirit.

Partly, journalists may be interested in their enlarging presence because they are noticing an obvious socio political paradigm shift occurring in our country. Another reason may be that the New Republicans are African Americans and Hispanics.

This trend is the death knell for the socialist dominated democrat party. Democrats will become a meaningless minority until they return to a being party that cares about America and American values. They must abandon their infatuation with socialism. Local governments and state governments that stay democrat will have minimal influence in the public dialog and public debate. More and more they will be weaned from their natural inclination to "feed from the public trough". It is clear that the logic of Hayek explained in "The Road To Serfdom" is starting to influence rational thinking about government. Free enterprise is the future. It will not happen without a vicious fight though. If you think that the rhetoric that is coming from Howard Dean is extreme now, just wait!
