EXCLUSIVE — When Rep. Mike Johnson first ran for chairman of the Republican Study Committee in 2018 as a freshman member, he posed a rhetorical question to the caucus's members about what their elevator pitch for the Republican Party and conservatism would be.
So Johnson made the pitch that if they took every Republican writing from the Federalist Papers to the Republican Party platform, it would boil down to seven key points, which he has dubbed the Seven Core Principles of Conservatism: Individual Freedom, Limited Government, The Rule of Law, Peace Through Strength, Fiscal Responsibility, Free Markets, Human Dignity.
“I think we've got to do a much better job of messaging why we're doing this, why it is in the interest of all Americans for us to succeed and to provide more liberty and opportunity and security for everybody,” Johnson said. “You don't achieve those ends by grasping at straws or borrowing ideas from European socialist countries or anything else; you do it by staying anchored to what made our country different, exceptional, and extraordinary.
