Commentary Some time ago, I began keeping a file marked “Conservative Gloominess.” It’s full of articles and animadversions by various hands: dire prognostications about who the next occupant of the White House will be, harrowing descriptions of disarray among conservatives, despairing portraits of U.S. or European society. What’s odd, or at least uncharacteristic, about these…
Will Secular Conservatives Have Conservative Grandchildren?
Commentary Secular conservatives have done, and continue to do, great work on behalf of America, liberty, and conservatism in general. But they will not likely have conservative grandchildren—and many will not have conservative children. I know this because I speak with hundreds of conservatives a year in person and on the radio. I routinely ask…
Explaining Conservativism II: Why the Left Hates It
Commentary “Since at least the World War II generation, most parents who held conservative values either did not think they had to teach their children those values or simply did not know how to do so. Most still don’t. If asked to define conservative values, most conservatives will be tongue-tied.” That’s what I wrote in…
Explaining Conservatism
Commentary There are a number of reasons many young people shy away from conservatism. The most obvious is that they have been exposed only to left-wing values—from elementary school through graduate school, in the movies, on television, on social media, and now even at Disneyland. Less obvious but equally significant is that they have never…

Jordan Peterson Releases ‘Conservative Manifesto’ for Those Holding ‘Traditional Values’
Canadian intellectual and clinical psychologist Jordan Peterson released what he calls a “conservative manifesto” on Sept. 17, which he says can act as a guideline for those who hold “traditional values.” “It’s called ‘A Conservative Manifesto,’” Peterson said in a YouTube video. “And it’s an attempt to begin the process of outlining a positive vision…
The Death of the Bush and Cheney Political Dynasties
Commentary Last Friday, I landed in beautiful Jackson Hole, Wyoming, to speak at a pro-life summit. The summit organizers had kindly dispatched a van to transport a number of us from the airport, and a U.S. congressman who happened to be on the same arriving flight hopped on to hitch a ride. The congressman, a…

There are elections coming up in the two most populous states. The Liberals in Victoria face further electoral oblivion in November and…

People who go out of their way to invite others to dream bigger, learn more, think more carefully, collaborate and take action, become enormously influential. Such was the legacy of the recently deceased American journalist and author…
