What then are the tenants of Progressivism? I know that Woodrow Wilson, a Progressive, wrote that the U.S Constitution was outdated and needed to be effectively interpreted to the point of rendering it null and void. He did not believe in limited Government.  Are you saying that Progressives do not support a woman's "right" to abortion or that they do not support gay marriage. Progressive writers like Croly supported socialism and Dewey was an avowed atheist who has had an enormous impact on Progressive thought?
