Just popped onto your profile page to see where you’re coming from, and I see it’s pretty hard-core libertarian. I can say with pretty good certainty that Sarah Palin, coming from the libertarian-leaning state of Alaska and having taken the positions she has, is the most libertarian-leaning candidate with a legitimate chance at the WH in the foreseeable future.

I haven’t heard Palin discuss whether or not she has an Originalist view of the Constitution like I do (if some folks call that “libertarian”, then so be it).

Sure, she sounds good on a few issues, & I think she’s a patriot...but what would she do about advocating the elimination of federal dept’s & buraucracies that voilate the Constitution?

How seriously would she enforce the 10th Amendment?

Would she support having a non-interventionist foreign policy that the Founding Fathers believed in, or would she continue to use our military to fight wars all over the globe rather than defending America first?

Etc., etc., etc.........
