So lets try a couple questions for you.

Who do you think speaks for you: Rush? Coulter?

Newt Gingrich and Ronald Reagan from the grave

Which presidents do you consider "real" conservatives? Just Reagan? Does he even make the cut.
Nixon


Next I'm wondering about what you're ideal position on a number of the issues would be. But more importantly what is the most moderate postion that would make you "happy". I.e. you certainly favor cutting taxes. Maybe you would ideally want the only tax to be a sales tax on condoms, rap music, and newspapers. Ok. But how much of just a "regular" Bush type tax cut would keep you "happy" with a candidate.

Anyway, Issues.

Immigration Legal=good, Illegal = bad
Affiramtive actionAgainst the American Way
Welfare etcAgainst the American Way
Social SecurityCompletely misused based on its initial reason
AbortionWrong
IraqWe need to finish the job
Foreign policy in generalI believe in Imperialism, but our country policy doesn't
Gun controlNo place for restricting good honest Americans from protecting themselves.
The homosexersChoice, not deserving special protections but should have access to equal taxation policy
Just how small a government?Defense, infrastructure
Just how few taxes?None that support socialist programs

And I guess any other issue particularily near to your hearts.
