I know many of you don’t even realize that there is a war happening right now. And there is a reason for that, which I will get to later. Some of you are exempt from this war, which I will address as well. And many of you are on the side of those waging the war, but may not realize it.
People who have strong fundamental values & morals in the culture can disagree with some things with their neighbors. but they cannot live in harmony with people that want you your family your country traditions & culture subjugated & Destroyed.
I know a bunch of people entered politics through Libertarianism, but I can't quite wrap my head around it. It's alternative, so didn't you have to start with one of the things it is alternative to?
I was having this conversation with my mom about how wrong I think Dave Smith is about recreating the Ron Paul Revolution.
Ron Paul was a man who happened to show up at the right time, he wasn't the right man who shaped his time.
The 2008 primary season started after the sinhle most demoralizing midterms of my lifetime. Even Rush Limbaugh came out and stated that he was happy the GOP lost bc he was "tired of carrying their water".
The GOP had been given everything that the voters could give them. In return, The GOP gave an Iraq War that they themselves wouldn't defend, Terry Sciavo, No Child Left Behind, Civil Unions, A Gay Pedo Sex Scandal, A Gay Public Bathroom Scandal, A bigger government and a deficit.
People (including me) were disgusted. Well-timed propaganda on Barry Goldwater being socially liberal was released, the internet was capable of showing us Milton Friedman Videos and alternatives to the GWB GOP started to become sexy. Enter Ron Paul. The time was right. Republicans under 40 were tired of arguing points that the white house itself wouldn't argue, we were tired of being painted as dumb hicks and war mongers. We wanted an escape. Libertarianism offered that.
Now we could always be right. We could make arguments that libs and cons wouldn't disagree with and always seem reasonable. It was a breath of fresh air and there was Ron Paul. Beautiful, intellectually consistent Ron Paul.
Yeah, i get that he brought in new people, i just don't buy that he could've done it in just any ol election. It had to be following that 2006 primary. Mises Caucus has the timing wrong, they misunderstand the moment. Now is a time for fighting, not coming off as reasonable to both sides.
