difference between liberals and conservatives is liberals suggest, i'm going all the way back to john lockend thomas jefferson who said the u.s. constitution should be revised every 19 years which is one generation. liberals would say social change in a positive direction should go forward as fast as possible. if we make mistakes we will fix them and keep going. conservatives as william buckley famously said, stands astride the arc of history with his hand out shouting stopped. conservatives are all in favor of positive social change but they wanted to go gradual, incremental and not in a disruptive fashion. both of the world views are legitimate. what i think is the modern tragedy is the word conservative has been hijacked as i said my father was a conservative, dwight eisenhower conservative. dwight eisenhower ran in 1956, go to your google machine and look of 1956 republican party platform, dwight eisenhower ran for reelection on a platform that said we have expanded social security, we have increased social security payments, we had 2 million more people to social security, expanded uni
