That is an interesting take on this.

I tend to think Conservative is someone that recognizes the founding fathers, that likely
were Liberals got it mostly right other than things like slavery and women's suffrage, and
don't really want to depart from the original blueprint other than for the modifications
for the aforementioned errors.

LOL

The Founding Fathers were very liberal.

You need to revisit history.

It was the Tories who were the conservatives of their day...and we
know how that worked out.

A lot like the last Presidential election.

I think it's more like this; conservatives are people who want to do one or
the other of two things in life. They either want to stand pat or else they
want to go back to some time in the past that they think was better than it
is now. Liberals, on the other hand, are people who want to do things
differently and see change as good. It's liberals who force conservatives to
move into the future and without them conservatives would be like African
tribesmen, living in huts and standing pat just like they have done for
thousands of years.
