About This Quote

My change of heart came about when I noticed that conservatism was the philosophy that best suited me. With its emphasis on individual liberty, personal responsibility, and merit, conservatism appealed to me more than any other philosophy. It also helped that I had become conservative for reasons of self-interest—I found that my beliefs were in line with those of my new political party.
