| DevilRising said: Because, unfortunately, a lot of modern "libertarians" are in fact just conservatives who don't want to be known as "Republican" anymore. I'm sad to say, most "libertarians" I've had the displeasure of running into/getting into any sort of political conversation with, do not in fact embody the "to each his own" type of mentality that the movement is supposed to be based around. Rather, they were, in every way, functionally republican, except perhaps wanting pot to be legalized. I realize there are libertarians who aren't like this, but I have yet to personally encounter any. |
I think Barr-Root returned to the GOP, unless I am mistaken. I know Root did.
