For those of you who may still be skeptical about my assertion that the conservatism promulgated by Rick Santorum (and many others) is essentially identity politics, tribalism, nationalism, etc., please take a look at this
video and notice how Santorum offers no objection to the blatant nationalism articulated by Dennis Terry. If I recall correctly, Obama was castigated for even being a member of a church whose pastor had said some incendiary things about America -- with no evidence that Obama was even in attendance, much less a guest of honor. Here we have the Rev. Dennis Terry making very clear who does and does not belong in America, while Santorum sits in attendance as a guest of honor. A decent person would have walked out of that sermon. Santorum is seen clapping.
