“Ron Paul is not a conservative. Ron Paul is a libertarian.”
AHEM.
“If you analyze it I believe the very heart and soul of conservatism is libertarianism. I think conservatism is really a misnomer just as liberalism is a misnomer for the liberals–if we were back in the days of the Revolution, so-called conservatives today would be the Liberals and the liberals would be the Tories. The basis of conservatism is a desire for less government interference or less centralized authority or more individual freedom and this is a pretty general description also of what libertarianism is.”
-Ronald Wilson Reagan, Reason magazine. 1975
Nice quote, that (#1435)....going on my web page.
Thanks for posting that.
“if we were back in the days of the Revolution”
But we’re not. However, Dr. Paul’s foreign policy still is.
