Sorry "googler," most Americans are not libertarians. One thing is certain, you will never win elections by shoving aside "social conservatives." I tell you this as an old man who has seen politics for almost 60 years. It was Gerry Fallwell and his social conservative Christians who elected Ronald Reagan in 1980. I know this because I was there and involved.

I personally am more libertarian than anything else. Abortion is a minor issue with me as is gay marriage, but it is really big with Christians and we need to gain their support by respecting their priorities.

Just because they do not sit around all day smoking pot and watching porn does not mean they do not respect personal freedom or freedom of speech. I guarantee you they have far more tolerance for dissent than any Marxist college professor. Trust me because I am well familiar with both types.

I can say this with certainty, the most hardcore libertarian would find living in a country dominated by Christian social conservatives much freer and more pleasant than any society dominated by the hardcore leftists, or the Marxists controlled Democrat Party and Obama. The most hardcore libertarian would find he had more in common with a Baptists preacher in the Bible Belt than any Obama supporter. Trust me because I am a libertarian who lives in the Bible Belt.
