Q:

Who should we vote for, for president?

A:

Who should we vote for, for president? We should vote for the one who seems to us the most conservative. Now I can’t tell you who that is.  But there’s no question that the conservatives today are more extremely liberal than the liberals of thirty years ago. We are so far advanced beyond the borders of liberalisms that today we can afford to retreat many miles behind the boundary and still be the forefront of liberalism.
So therefore, you can’t have too much conservatism. You have to vote for conservative candidates on every level, on national state and city levels.  That’s my opinion.
By the way, nobody has to agree with me here – on anything. Only, I don’t have to agree with you either.
