Both progressive and conservative

I think the original U. S. Constitution of the Founders can harmonize with a political order based in natural law, which includes natural human nature as recently reaffirmed by the science of sociobiology. This is how real unity and order are developed. I think about the old social order of unity between church and state and culture, and how that unity has been lost---however, our views of human nature do need to affirm variety, smaller states, ethnopluralism, this is the natural condition which makes real order possible. Huge multicultural states become warring factions within the state. The Founders seemed to have understood this in seeking a balance of various virtually independent states and powers, with the whole protected by their light version of federalism, which was its main task.

Human nature affirms the group over the individual as the main unit of selection, this was the way we survived and still survive. This is not being against individual freedom, it is for harmony and order by affirming what human nature actually is. I think about living in a small state which is voluntarily and democratically assisted by the science of sociobiology, with a culture that also affirms our evolution to Godhood, while living alongside other small states with ethnopluralism and variety, protected from outside hostilities by a light federalism. This seems to be both progressive and conservative. It is conservative in attempting to follow natural law and human nature from which real tradition and order have always developed, it is progressive in affirming ongoing evolution---but with an Ordered Evolution---grounded in religion, seeking to evolve all the way to Godhood in the cosmos, the God first seen only inwardly by the great religions.
