Not much different from my previous post in this thread but I'll go into more detail:
I would have an ideological platform that focuses on three main pillars:
1. Reform-minded Conservatism when it comes to social issues and societal issues.
2. Re-branding Neoconservatism into "Democratic Realism" as defined by Charles Krauthammer (
http://www.aei.org/publication/democratic-realism/).
3. Promoting State Rights and federalism as a mechanism for promoting fiscal discipline and creating economic growth.
These three pillars would represent a strand of conservatism that mixes seeks to promote conservatism through soft and inclusive rhetoric.
Suburban white voters, middle-class voters, African-Americans, Hispanics/Latinos, Jewish Voters, Asian American voters, Hindu/Sikh voters, Mainstream Protestant/Catholic/Mormon voters.
Ideologically, this party would be socially moderate (but still pro-Life and somewhat traditional), pro-business fiscal conservatives, and hawkish on foreign policy/national security issues. My party, despite being more moderate on some social issues, would not be secular but not religiously fundamental either (so i'd want the John Danforth's of the world, not the Jerry Falwell's or Rick Santorum's).
