William McKenzie’s article in Thursday’s Times, “Moderates must outwork the far right,” is a classic and should be read and studied by every conservative voter. The reason that Mr. McKenzie thinks that compromise is the right way to be involved with politics is because he either does not know the history of our country and its Constitution or he believes the Constitution should be reinterpreted based on new ideas, values and mores. Lanier Tea Party Patriots, like most tea parties, believe in constitutionally limited government, fiscal responsibility and free markets.
