Heather Pfitzenmair, Director of the Young Leaders Program at the Heritage Foundation, speaks to TEA Party Maui Heather Pfitzenmaier, the Director of the Young Leaders Program of the Heritage Foundation was the featured guest speaker at our January 13th General meeting. You can read Heather's bio by clicking here. Tasked with the job of communicating the principles of the Heritage Foundation and developing leadership among young adults, she spoke about her interaction with students at numerous colleges throughout the country. She also described the diverse demographics in our movement as well as discussing the other TEA Party groups with whom she has interacted during her travels. She entertained many questions from the audience and shared insights of the Foundation’s strategy of categorizing potential audiences into three primary factions: “saints, sinners, and salvageables”. The “saints” are the conservatives who comprise our base that we support but do not need to preach to. The “salvageables” are those people outside our base, but who can be converted to our conservative principles. This is the group that we must reach. The “sinners” are the committed liberal/progressives that we need not waste our time trying to “convert”. It was a strategy well received by the audience. A child born today is the inheritor of a national debt that stands at 15 trillion and counting. Their future is bleak and they will be slaves to the debt as shown in this cartoon by Michael Ramirez.
