The Radical Vision of Sam Francis
Sam Francis, a former Republican staffer at the Heritage Foundation, considered himself a man of the radical right rather than a conservative. He advocated for a counter-revolution to overthrow corrupted liberal institutions and establish a new reactionary social agenda led by a populist, Caesarist presidency. His vision aimed to reconfigure the economy and societal values in favor of middle American radicals, promoting a radical authoritarian populist direction for the conservative movement in the American right.
