Goldwater supported abortion. He also had no problems with homosexuality. Libertarian views on both counts.
You apparently know more about Sen. Goldwater than I do. I was eighteen when he was running for the presidency and I did some doorbelling for him but as far as his views on abortion or homosexuality, I wouldn’t have had a clue. People didn’t talk much about that stuff in public 50 years ago.
I still say he was way more conservative than most Republicans today I also think his positions would have evolved after 50 million abortions and the in-your-face way that queers are today.
