A Lesson in Conservative Optimism

Tags: Current Focus, United States,
Daniel Henninger of the WSJ interviews Edwin Feulner, who founded the Heritage Foundation in 1974. The Heritage Foundation gained influence during the Reagan presidency. Feulner says he believes having the numbers right is important to maintain credibility, and it is important to respect the origin of the opposite side's ideas. Feulner reminds readers the Heritage Foundation has 600,000 donors as current members, and once turned down a check from textile magnate Milliken over its support for free trade. Its positions strive to be conservative, not Republican. Feulner looks ahead to political leaders like Jack Kemp who partnered with Bob Garcia of the Bronx on urban revival, and could take caring positions outside the political spectrum.
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
