Debate Tonight

It sounds like you’re saying Glenn Beck tricked the #1 cable news network into giving him his own show for two and half years.

I don’t think you are right about him. He strikes me as a very genuine and honest person. Yes he is not a libertarian and has all kind of weird and inconsistent positions on many issues, but that’s what most people have. But I do think he is a genuine person.

@FoolOnTheHill, I don’t think people would think he is an anarchist per se. It’s the association thing that will make numb-skulls in the Republican party be turned off. That’s what I’m afraid of. “Look, he recommends LewRockwell.com. They are a bunch of conspiracy nuts and anarchists! Anarchism = bad! Therefore they are bad! He goes on Alex Jones’ show! He has a disfavorable opinion of Abraham Lincoln! Only Neo-Confederates criticize Lincoln!” I think it could be a solid smear campaign, but John has brought up some good points as to why it may not be effective.

But Ron Paul is probably an anarchist, at least in theory.

Perhaps more likely he is sympathetic to voluntaryism and would allow voluntary society had he the support in Congress.

Isn’t that the same?

If you think its the same, that would be your argument to make.
