I've probably went back and deleted two or three replies. Having a hard time putting my thoughts into words.

What would someone be who has a laissez faire social attitude toward Government legislation? A Libertarian? Would that also be the same thing as a social moderate?

I would personally like to see a lot more politicians who would change the energy and focus of the Fed Gov away from Social Issues and toward fiscal reform.
