"What do you expect? Kid's a Buchananite"
Ironic. I was a strong supporter of Buchanan, before he went all "wobbly". Isolationism in a Post 9-11 world is a suicide pact.
Basically. Marcus is still young, though, and still has plenty of time to realize that there's a portion of the world which hates him merely for existing, and no amount of leaving them alone will appease. That, and if the mark of a "true" conservative is hanging around with the likes of Leonora Fulani and Taki Cokespoonopolous, count me out ;)
