The grassroots, "teabaggers", and Ron Paul libertarians, did not get what they wanted. They were exiled from the party. The party rules were changed so that any sort of grassroots rebellion could be extinguished.

I understand the theory you're suggesting. It isn't working though. We aren't getting the liberty, peace, and prosperity we deserve. We're getting more of the same.

What we need to do is to choke that stubborn senile elephant, and replace it with what it use to stand for, libertarianism.

As far as the Democrats are concerned, well... keep it classy.

I don't think you understand how free markets and private property rights work. The big corporations are using the government regulations as leverage against small businesses and/or other competition. It's the government that unconstitutionally takes from the people, and gives to the corporations. It's the cronyism that's the problem.

Even if you don't think Ron Paul is perfect, he's way better than either of these crony-capitalist/corporatist scumbags that aren't any different from one another.

Wouldn't it be nice not to have a president working for the propaganda machine? For thirty years Ron Paul has been speaking the truth. He's predicted so many things that have come true. He's been using the facts, and not just telling the people what they want to hear.

A few comments:

1. No parent would take their child to a pediatrician that doesn't have adequate experience.
2. The Internet exists to provide background checks and competing services.
3. The Government isn't required for certifying pediatricians. Universities aren't government institutions. They are accredited private institutions with public interests. It's the credibility of the certifying organization that's important.

All of this is driven by the free market. All of this can be applied in every industry; not just pediatricians.
