There is considerable overlap between conservatism and libertarianism in that both oppose government favoring one group over another (aka affirmative action), onerous restrictions on businesses, and fiscal responsibility. Libertarianism and conservatism are natural allies, and setting one against the other helps only the big government leftists. I guarantee I'm not the only Paul supporter on here.

I'll break it down for you:

The term 'conservative' is no longer relevant and must be consigned to the trash heap of history. Today, it means nothing, having been co-opted by the likes of Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell, and so many others who call themselves 'conservative'.

Any label one wears that requires a college course to explain the meaning of, is useless.

Henceforth, those who previously self-identified as 'conservative' (as well as so called 'libertarians') and truly are, will be known as PATRIOTS. It is a simple to understand term and requires no explanation. You either ARE a patriot or you are NOT.

Now we just have to define the America that we love, and that one right there is easy, cause it's written down in the Constitution of the United States of America.

“Patriot” was co-opted by Stalin decades ago (cf. “Great Patriotic War as Soviet name for WWII).

Very few RINOs use the term “conservative” to describe themselves; vast majority are out of office now.
