"You and I have a rendezvous with destiny. We will preserve for our children this, the last best hope of man on earth, or we will sentence them to take the first step into a thousand years of darkness. If we fail, at least let our children and our children's children say of us we justified our brief moment here. We did all that could be done."
Ronald Reagan

Jonah Goldberg - Church and state, Newtzilla, social media, and the second favorite flavor

This week on Uncommon Knowledge, columnist, scholar, and social media maven Jonah Goldberg discusses topics including the unconstrained vision of the left, the problem with Romney, the reality of diversity, why vanilla is everyone's second favorite flavor, and offers some wise but unpalatable advice to conservative voters. He cites Bill Voegeli's essential book Never Enough: America's Limitless Welfare State.
"I do not think they hate Romney that much... Vanilla is everyone's second favorite flavor. And so they do not hate him, but they do not love him. And they really want to love someone. They want to be in love with a candidate. And they have these sorts of tawdry affairs with everybody else, other than Romney this entire primary season."
