Reader comment on item: Conservatism's Hidden History

Submitted by Christopher Game (United States), Jul 31, 2018 at 02:56

Dear Daniel Pipes,

You are a great man. Please continue your mighty works. Pipes for president after Donald Trump. It was a high point in my life to meet you when you spoke at an IPA breakfast in Melbourne many years ago.

Cheers,

Christopher Game
