Some, I suppose. Paul has significant crossover appeal. Remember the Reagan Democrats?
“Some, I suppose. Paul has significant crossover appeal. Remember the Reagan Democrats?”
Ehhh. Paul and Reagan aren’t on the same line of thinking. Reagan believed in a strong military, with a necessary external foreign policy....Paul is too reclusive.
We’re talking about a different era, where the Commies were coming to a close...but Reagan ensured it. The countries demographics were just changing, and Reagan was enough to fit-in. He was at era where government was it’s highest, and he was voice for that change. The dem-base was at it’s lowest.
Timing...really.
Paul’s timing is horrendous. The MSM loves it because it shows a splintered view on foreign policy on the right, and that gives Paul more attention. Frankly Michael B...of the Libertarian party was much better than Paul, but you didn’t see him get this much attention (for variable reasons).
