[The New Right lacks the leadership necessary to fundamentally change how the U.S. is defined and operates.
Does not want to change how US is fundamentally defined and operated.
I disagree. The New Right has advocated the repeal of section one of the 14th Amendment; the 16th Amendment; and the 17th Amendment to the US Constituting. They have argued the 10th Amendment provides the legal authority to nullify laws passed by the Congress (in effect nullifying clause two of Article VI); the New Right has proposed Constitutional Amendments to require a balanced budget and to outlaw abortion; and in a most egregious group of actions the New Right is currently making an effort in the States to restrict the franchise of our citizens to vote.
The New Right hopes to privatize Social Security, Medicare and Medicade and eliminate entire agencies which provide protection to our people and to our environment. Yes, fundamental change is their goal and the ultimate goal is to remake the United States into an oligarchy under the control of the very wealthy - a Plutocracy.
