1) i don't even think this guy is a conservative. he did the same thing for progressives. he's not reiterating the same ideas with same words but is rather putting it in a different, more understandable language 2) you haven't really made a coherent argument why he is wrong a) education is not per se, but rather about "Societies succeed if strong family structures support an emphasis on learning and acculturation". Conservatives are surely about family values b) it's not so much 'america is awesome' imho but more about western values and lack of moral relativism.
например: In international affairs, in the twentieth century, the United States in particular has been unselfish to a remarkable degree. We therefore should trust the United States with unprecedented power.
и где логика? если кто-то делает что-то бесплатно, еще не значит, что это хорошо и ему нужно доверять: например, террористы в большинстве своем никакой прямой выгоды не получают.
i think you are missing the point. He is not making the case for conservative movement - ie that it's correct. He is simply listing the views that define it.
I happen to agree with pretty much all of those views, but that's a separate point.
