Best Answer

There was really no national leader of the modern Conservative movement until William F. Buckley, Jr., who recently died at age 82, launched the magazine, National Review, in 1955. His consolidation of the conservative (classical liberalism) view helped the conservative movement develop and led to the presidential nominations of Barry Goldwater and Ronald Reagan.

What did William F Buckley do for the Conservative movement?

William F. Buckley is considered the father of the modern conservative movement. He founded the bi-weekly journal the National Review, and hosted the TV show The Firing Line. He was a persuasive critic of many of liberalism's key policies and ideas, and he articulated many of the ideas that became central to the conservative movement. He trained some of the future conservative thought leaders like George Will and David Brooks. He is considered the single greatest influence on the rise of the conservative movement in the United States, whose ideas now dominate talk radio and Fox News, and whose greatest political moment is considered the election of Ronald Reagan.

What is a conservative synagogue?

In the United States, the Conservative movement is a Jewish movement that holds to a more traditional liturgy than the Reform movement while taking a liberal stand on many issues. Generally, the Reform movement has taken liberal stands on issues like ordaining women or gay marriage long before the Conservative movement. The conservative movement has taken its time searching for justifications for these positions before moving. To an outsider, except for the separation of men and women in an Orthodox synagogue, the Orthodox and Conservative liturgies are almost indistinguishable. There are small changes in the Hebrew text and, in bilingual prayerbooks, more use of gender-inclusive language in the English translations used in Conservative prayerbooks.
