Great article. I can’t help but feel despondent about the prospect of WFB not being around in such turbulent political and economic times. His insights about life and politics was something that this world will never fully replace, and surely not by one man alone. I hope the party he left will always remember the words and actions of the their iconoclast, and take heart in the ideal that we are, at our root, a Conservative country. I pray that our party still remembers how to speak to the heart that yearns for the ideals that have shaped us into the country we are today and will steel us against the tides of turbulence that are to come.
