Really? I hear this a lot from liberals, but what is the reality?
Are liberals open to:
allowing full gun rights
giving more protection to the unborn
lowering the tax burden on business overall
securing our borders
enforcing immigration laws
allowing a company (Boeing) to create more jobs in right to work states
allowing people to not be forced to buy a product for simply being alive (HI)
allowing states to run their own educational system without mandates and interference from the federal government
allowing minorities and Caucasians to have the same exact rights, without special rights for any one group
allowing workers to vote in a secure and private environment either for or against unionizing, just like when voting for politicians
allowing thousands of jobs to be created by allowing states to decide where and when our own natural energy sources can be harvested
allowing people to succeed or fail on their own
No matter how many times liberals "claim" to be open minded, they prove themselves not to be. For the most part, liberals are only open to things which "they" want. If they were truly open minded, they would be embracing conversation and ideas from their conservative counterparts. But just by the short list I provided you can see liberals are far from open minded and in fact, they want to "push" their ideology down our throats.
You don't quite understand, but many do not. Conservatives either want things to stay the same or go back to some time in the past. Liberals are not usually interested in going backwards in time. The things you suggest were available in the 1800's, sorry most liberals are not interested in going back to the 1800's . That is not considered progress, and so no in that respect Liberals are not open minded.

Another thing liberals do. They justify everything and everything by saying "it's progress." As if new necessarily equals better.
I have become more liberal with age, not more conservative. It comes with seeing so damned much greed, lack of freedom and misjustice in the world. Besides, I associate conservatives with wanting to make clear to me what I can't do, rather than what I can do.
But liberals telling us how to eat, what size house to buy, what kind of car to buy and how much of our own money we should be able to keep is fine and dandy?
If you want live and let live and mind your own business, liberalism isn't for you either.
You're not talking about liberals. You're talking about radicals.
