"Aristotle may be regarded as the cultural barometer of Western history. Whenever his influence dominated the scene, it paved the way for one of history's brilliant eras; whenever it fell, so did mankind." --The Voice of Reason, Ayn Rand
================================
Sometimes we learn the most beneficial things from people who have made mistakes on their own, learned from those mistakes, and then passed on what they learn to others. Tammy Bruce, David Horowitz, and Andrew Breitbart are three such individuals. These three revolutionaries (perhaps not revolutionaries in the way they first imagined themselves) have helped trail-blaze a new American Revolution. What is that Revolution? Leftism? Marxism? Collectivism? Nope. Individualism and liberty as promised to us by our Founding Fathers.
I often draw a distinction in my writings between Leftism and Classical Liberalism. It is a misunderstanding that has been promoted by Leftist Collectivists deliberately in order to confuse, confound, and prod the American people into giving up their liberty for a supposed "security"--a security which cannot be had unless it rides upon the back of the liberty of others. That isn't liberty; it is enslavement. It enslaves one citizen to another. What is the leash? Legislation which makes each individual responsible for every other individual in the country...and now every individual in the whole world due to the dissolving of America's sovereignty in favor of a globalist agenda.
All three of these trail-blazers started out on the Left...and then migrated to the Right. As with most of us, the migration to the Right probably came about with these three due to circumstances in their own lives which changed them from the inside out.
Below is my tribute to each of them as I outline a little bit about what makes each of them unique and what they have to contribute to our new American Revolution against those who would bring tyranny down on our heads. My aim is not to necessarily give a biography of each--but, in my own words, provide what I like best about each of them. I hope I do each of them justice and give them my thanks for their efforts.
