I don’t mean the candidates; I mean the voters. Ron Paul is everything that Republicans say they want in a candidate: pro-life, fiscal conservative, no new taxes, extend the Bush tax cuts, no Trans-Texas Corridor, no amnesty for illegals, no funding for NPR, Planned Parenthood, and the UN, cut welfare, pro-gun, repeal Roe v. Wade, family values, no raise the debt ceiling, etc., etc., etc. Although it is true that the typical Republican doesn’t fully embrace liberty like Ron Paul (no drug war, etc.), the main reason why the typical Republican rejects Ron Paul is because they love war and empire more than liberty. So sad.
