“conservative” only in the sense of consistently being and voting in favor of limited, constitutional government, and being pro-life, and in favor of securing our borders. Apart from that, he’s a total leftist.

LOL! As you point out, Ron Paul understands what conservatives are supposed to be conserving. As a result, Paul is an eminent conservative...just not a very good Republican. :)

Do you want the government to have the power to legislate on moral issues? Think same-sex marriage.

Yeah....I wondered about that too....surely there has been greater turnover than 201 legislators in 36 years?

Maybe those with say less than x years are not counted, maybe x = 6?
