What is no nonsense politics? It's politics that allows for individual freedom, not government intervention. It calls on politicians of both political parties to stop pandering and create policies that are based on principles of justice and liberty for individuals.
It's ideal yet not idealogical.
It recognizes the death of "common sense" and sees that as a sad thing. It is a new breed of politics that realizes there is not just a past, but there is a future as well. It realizes that we cannot continue to live in the past but move on to the future and the challenges that we face.
No-nonsense politics has been embraced by some but still is eschewed by many if not most.
It is not merely political but is significantly spiritual. It is the spirit of Patrick Henry when he says "give me liberty or give me death." It is also embodied in the spirit of Abe Lincoln when he states that "I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts."
It transcends political figures and personalities and recognizes that individual people with creativity are what have made great nations great. It recognizes that harsh reality that some individuals are more talented than other individuals, but yet each individual has value in society.
It represents a can-do attitude and overcomes opposition of impossibility of great odds.
It is the policy that our nation was founded upon but has somehow been made to believe is a thing of the past.
