“Both he and his father were elected as Republicans, so your point is moot.”
No the point is not moot. This just shows that both Pauls are dishonest by calling themselves Republicans, and that the people in Texas in Kentucky were naïve to have elected them as “Republicans.” Electing these men is, of course, up to the people of the state. However, calling them Republicans, while it is the people’s ability to do so, it doesn’t make it right. A great many persons that have come out of NE states like Maine are called “Republicans”, but are not....they would be considered “Democrats” in most other states. The reverse used to occur in the South where “Democrats” were elected that were really Republicans...but at that time folks there just couldn’t bring themselves to vote for a Republican. Thankfully that has changed.
Whatever, neither Paul is a Republican...both are Libertarians that cannot get elected if they ran under the proper party title.
So, why do you want to be a Republican cheerleader, rather than an advocate for liberty?
