I agree that classic liberalism most accurately describes the dominant philosophy in shaping the USA but there is little doubt that we've seen a significant pivot away from that in the last century. Not sure when you would say the first main pivot occurred - maybe the New Deal? The New Deal's form of liberalism didn't look much like classic liberalism and I don't think we've ever really fully returned to it since then. We've had periods of returning to a watered down version of it from time to time I guess. Regardless classic liberalism may have been most responsible for the making of the USA, but it's influence is not nearly as strong now and we are being made into something else now.
