Ultimately, Libertarianism is not acceptable to the American political mainstream, which is why it only ever gains traction on the fringes, though it wins some of its small victories.

I think you're going to be surprised in the near future when there will not only be a large segement of libertarianism in the Republican party, but also the Democratic party. Do remember that until the 1930's, classical liberalism was the overwhelmingly dominant political philosophy in the United States, and it hasn't died as it had in Europe, and Asia (arguably never born in Asia.)
