Because a lot of what Paul advocates is kind of messy.
Had Romney alone came out against the NDAA and the “Police State/War on Drugs he would have gotten million more votes at a minimum.
I can’t tell you how big the NDAA and police state stuff is to a lot fo people.
Also very true.
The entire Paul agenda does not have to be taken wholesale, but there are a lot of votes to be had by taking the stuff he is correct about and trumpeting it.
The youth vote is out there for the taking. All the cool kids are Paulians. We need to figure out how to tap into that pool of voters. Taking some of the Paul stuff and crediting him for it would go a long way.
