An open source conservative embraces the best of the public and openness, while rejecting traditional controls on discourse.
Examples of Open Source Conservatives
- Sarah Palin has made herself a relevant and influential voice for conservatism while eschewing the traditional gatekeepers. She has made it clear that she has little use for the liberal mainstream media, and has demonstrated that their approval is not needed through her savvy use of online communication.
- The Tea Party movement rejects the idea that a political movement needs to be governed by a handful of political elites; it is a movement driven by the Best of the Public which uses the Internet and other modern communication methods to organize and coordinate activities, rather than traditional top-down marching orders.
