It’s time to begin thinking about what the new political ideal should incorporate. For starters, we could do worse than highlight three perennial themes which ring out loud and clear in the best of US history – individualism, personal responsibility, and compassionate egalitarianism. America needs a new Roosevelt, Kennedy, King, or Reagan to blend these ideals into a contemporary program which can attract the admiration and devotion of the great majority of Americans. For the sake of the free world, America can and must be made great again, but this can only happen with a new, cohesive vision, based on old American virtues.
