And conservatives need to read the Constitution: “We the People of the United States…”.
And, while you’re at it, please find the word “conservative”. Can’t find it? That’s OK, the word “democracy” is not there either. As a profoundly moral document, Article IV, Section 4 includes a “guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government”. Perhaps, we should just go with that. The Democrats chose the name of their party and move as a repudiation of this clause and the Constitution in general. One gets the impression that the “conservative” movement did likewise.
