Says you. I say the Founders at this point are beyond liberal or conservative. There's plenty there for anyone to support, and everyone in this country does. Yes there are finer points that not everyone accepts, but that's something that happens on all sides of the political spectrum.
What you feel we oppose is your strict interpretation of what the Founders stood for, and that's just not the same thing no matter how badly you want to believe it.
Conservatives opposed abolishing slavery, opposed women's suffrage, civil rights, ending the Vietnam War, and that's just off the top of my head. You can slow down progress but you can't stop it.
