Are Libertarians the New Neocons?

I think that's the view taken by most in the GOP. I think FreeRepublic reflects the party generally. Lots of whoopping for war, death and destruction. We're screwed. I don't think Rand can ever get the nomination in a party like that.

What other party can he get the nomination in? With all due respect, if you know, stop holding out on us.

Rand has transformed minds within the party. Yes, it is true, that public opinion can be fragile, and people tend to resort to following the leader, regardless of party D, R, or even L if it ever managed to get someone into a leadership position. I think Free Republic is a very LOUD portion of the party but like with liberals loudest does NOT mean largest.

I think we should give up on Presidential politics and focus on getting Republican senators through the primary system and then in the election. Imagine 10 Rand Paul's in the US Senate. They could as a team vote down every piece of unconstitutional sh*t legislation and massive spending bills. They will have to change their ways. Also, its cheaper/easier to win a senate race than a damn presidential election...
