When young paleos are willing to shout themselves hoarse demonstrating, when they are willing to get themselves arrested blocking sidewalks, then the movement will succeed. When they tire of turning the other cheek, when they will not be silenced by smear stereotypes, when they stop apologizing for the Richard Wagners and H.L. Menckens, then the movement will succeed. When they promote the memory of the Nikola Teslas and Edwin Armstrongs as relentlessly as the enemy promotes the memory of the Albert Einsteins and David Sarnoffs, then the movement will succeed. When they have made the Bolsheviks as much a household word as the Nazis, when the famine in the Ukraine is as well known as Auschwitz, then the movement will succeed. When names like Wolfowitz, Perle and Fleischer are on everyone's tongues, then the movement will succeed. When all Americans are familiar with the cryptic message, "The bride is beautiful, but she belongs to another man," then the movement will succeed. When they will denounce the Rockefeller Family from the rooftops, then the movement will succeed. Alas, they are conservative, and so they fail.
