There’s a pretty easy way to differentiate between a conservative and a libertarian. Go through these issues with a person:

Libertarian Party Platform:

Throw open the borders completely; only a rare individual (terrorist, disease carrier etc.) can be kept from freedom of movement through “political boundaries”, eliminate the Border Patrol and INS.

Homosexuals; total freedom in the military, gay marriage, adoption, child custody and everything else.

Abortion; zero restrictions or impediments full 9 months.

Pornography; no restraint, no restrictions.

Drugs; Meth, Heroin, Crack, and anything new that science and marketers can come up with, zero restrictions.

Advertising those drugs, prostitution, and pornography; zero restrictions.

Military Strength; minimal capabilities.

So, given those issues, is Rand Paul a libertarian?

Sounds like the DNC agenda. Odd that.

As with anything, there’s a range of opinion among libertarians. That’s like saying all Republicans favor the death penalty - it just ain’t so, Joe.
