I’m explaining others theories. I’m not taking a position.
My overall position is that of smaller government, not bigger government.
I am not taking a foreign policy position.
The Traditional Conservative Republican foreign policy position is less foreign policy action compared to the Leftist Democrat position which is more foreign policy action.
Recently (starting in the 70s and 80s) the Dems didn’t want to fight Communism, not because they weren’t the ones who wanted to spend our money on wars, and tell other countries how to live their lives, but because they were pro Communist.
But, traditionally, the Dems were for Big Foreign Policy, the Reps were for Small Foreign Policy. Just like their views of Government here in the states.
Paul isn’t a conservative.
