  2. I learned from Mao that the countryside can always and everywhere defeat the cities.

  13. I learned from the evidence that left and right might align on taking out the financial sector, and gutting the state if we both agree to separate.

  14. I learned from the past thirty years that the left in all its forms is confident it can win and must be stopped permanently.

  15. I learned that it is relatively easy to restore our place in human history and lift our people again in to a renaissance if we win.

I learned a lot more too….
