Being the best requires rare and extreme dedication, patience and effort. What a contrast to the "moderation" that is the catchword of the day! Being labeled "extremist" is politically incorrect, and to be avoided. Taking anything to the extreme is considered bad, and frowned upon by society.
As a nation, we no longer accept moral or ethical boundaries. The notion of absolute right and wrong is just too extreme! Living up to high standards and striving for excellence is what made this nation what it once was. Moderating those standards is what is destroying us!
With this in mind, I offer you the modern definition of an extremist. An extremist is a person who exhibits one or more of the following qualities:
Has an explicit philosophical base.
Has a concise, inflexible moral code.
Has an ethical standard which is not relative or situational.
Believes in a Creator God.
Believes that life, liberty and property are sacred.
Is willing to stand up for these principles and beliefs.
Do you qualify? If you do, our nation needs you. We need new leaders who are willing to adhere to extreme standards and principles for a government Of The People. We need a populace who goes to extreme measures to educate themselves and take responsibility for a government By The People. We need to take extreme measures to end the existing mutation of our constitutionally limited republic, to return to a government For The People.
We have become a nation of moderates. We are reaping mediocre results.
P.S.
And finally, if you applaud when Barbra Streisand talks geopolitics or when a right-wing talk show host urges a nuclear strike on Iran, welcome to the wonderful world of extremism.

An extremist is simply a person who seeks to impose his views, sensibilities and moralities on other people.
A person with radical views does not become an extremist till he seeks to bring other people to his point of view.
P.S: The people answering this question seem to have taken your advice to give original definitions to heart rather too earnestly.
