I thought Paul was a Republican.

The libertarian position on abortion:
“Recognizing that abortion is a sensitive issue and that people can hold good-faith views on all sides, we believe that government should be kept out of the matter, leaving the question to each person for their conscientious consideration.”

So, love him or hate him, Howard Dean is right on this then...

I'd be willing to consider this position as long as the unborn persons also have a say in the issue.

The libertarian position on abortion: “Recognizing that abortion is a sensitive issue and that people can hold good-faith views on all sides, we believe that government should be kept out of the matter, leaving the question to each person for their conscientious consideration.”

That's the Libertarian Party's position and it reflects the division among libertarians on the issue.

There are libertarians that argue protection of the unborn is an expression of the government's obligation to protect the innocent against force or fraud. Other libertarians argue that there isn't yet a person to protect.

The difference between the two groups has nothing to do with the philosophy of libertarianism, but instead with questions about the beginning of personhood.

There’s a large body of pro-life libertarians. I’m one.

Please note the small “l.” The large “L” Libertarians are as corrupted as the R’s and D’s.
