The Way Forwards


The GOP needs a leader who will hammer-home the new paradigm that it’s the Democrats who are the Party of Wall Street, Big Business and Big Labor. They don’t care about small business, the entrepreneur, or the worker at a small business who’s non-union. The Democrats don’t even care about farmers anymore…just Big Agro’ and their allies Big Pharma.

The GOP needs to drive a wedge between the struggling small business owner or small business executive who’s sweating-out a payroll…and the fat-cat Big Business exec. and his golden parachute and no sweat or sweat equity in the game. Between those who work hard and risk their own money, and the corporate-types on Wall Street, Big Business and Healthcare/Pharma who just play with “Other People’s Money” while protected by golden parachutes and government bailouts.

This has not been a failure of Capitalism…it’s been a failure of Casino Capitalization and the corrosive effects of Other People’s Money. It’s time for some GOP Leader to step forwards and deliver a “Cross of Gold” speech for the 21st-Century and revitalize Republicanism as a party of muscular activism as under Theodore Roosevelt…not as the “Party of No” against Obamaism.
