Bully Pulpit

The term "bully pulpit" stems from President Theodore Roosevelt's reference to the White House as a "bully pulpit," meaning a terrific platform from which to persuasively advocate an agenda. Roosevelt often used the word "bully" as an adjective meaning superb/wonderful. The Bully Pulpit features news, reasoned discourse, opinion and some humor.

Ronald Reagan Tells Us How to Revitalize the Republican Party

From Rush Limbaugh:

We were talking about the Republican Party yesterday and the state that it finds itself in, which is not good, and appears to be worsening by the day. Here's a clear agenda item to take to the American people, educate 'em, inform 'em, rally 'em, get them all fired up. By the way, let me read something to you as an adjunct to our important, perhaps the most important radio program of the past couple months that took place yesterday. Everybody says the Republican Party needs to rebrand itself in a marketing sense. Now, my question is, let's take the people in the Republican Party right now from the leadership on down. Who in there do we think has the ability to do this? If they had the ability to rebrand themselves, do you think they would be doing it? Or are they going to give up rebranding and instead hitch themselves to the wagon of John McCain, who doesn't want them to hitch their wagon to his. But let me read something to you, see if this strikes you as workable, see if you find this intelligent.
