I think it is time for a wake up call to Chester County Republican Voters

The 1950's and early 1960’s was the time of Country Club Republicans that gave liberally to civic causes. The Eisenhower Republican Era of the 1950’s to early 1960’s that some of us remember is not a distant dream; it is a forgotten dream.

If he could come back President Eisenhower would not recognize his Party. He would see the Liberal wing of the Democratic Party as his soul mates. The “fringe nut cases” that existed in the Republican Party during Eisenhower’s time now have total control of today’s Republican Party.

Barry Goldwater was one of the people that President Eisenhower referred to as a “fringe nut case”. I firmly believe that had Barry Goldwater won the presidency instead of President Johnson we would now be radioactive dust floating in clouds around a barren planet.

Goldwater’s nut case prodigy is now in control of the National Republican Party. Those once fringe nut cases also control the Chester County Republican Committee.

If you define Liberal Politician in today’s political climate President Eisenhower would be classified as a Liberal Politician. Our last truly Liberal President may have been President Richard Nixon:
