It is the most amazing thing! And not just in the US, across the world...whatever hopes the 20yo of the 60's held, they sure raised a generation that seemed to go the other way.

"and yet" LOL....if he's a conservative then of course he beloved in freedom and liberty and the greatness of the individual among other individuals.

There is nothing unlikely about that, as he's not some collectivist lefty Democrat pursuing or promoting racial equity.
