    Political discourse today is driven almost entirely by tribalism and bias and very little by principles and truth. We’ve come to a sad and dangerous place. Liberty cannot survive without virtue.

        Honestly, I’m a Democrat and know I disagree with Amash on most policy. However, I do appreciate he demonstrates principles and it’s obvious our two party system is broken.

        Libertarians are inherently anti-racism, and always have been at the forefront of any equal rights movement, WAYYY out ahead of the pro-corporate, only-support-equality-once-it's-politically-convenient Democrats, so that comment makes zero sense.https://www.lp.org/news-press-releases-libertarian-party-four-decade-advocacy-for-marriage-equality-pays-off-with-us/ …

        That may be however very few republicans are libertarian. Newt Gingrich made clear years ago he’d do anything to fight Dems on everything (which GOP has)- Obamacare is based on a study from conservative think tank. Libertarians should be pro-choice yet none are.

        Official position of the Libertarian Party on abortion is the decision should be left to the individual and that government should be kept out. There are pro-choice and pro-life Libertarians - which doesn’t seem inconsistent if one holds the view that it’s up to the individual

        I have a principle. That loud angry men who cannot maintain their composure should not be judges on the US Supreme Court. I don't care about anything but his performance yesterday. That alone shows he's not the right candidate. Pick someone else @realDonaldTrump

        Don’t both sides it. That’s a kind of lie too. That’s you watching a man reach over, punch the other guy repeatedly, beat him to a pulp, and saying, well this is ugly and out of control. That isn’t justice. This isn’t civilized.

        We came to this place because men of bad character, which includes your colleagues, are allowed to lie, hide behind their anger, bigotry, ignorance, and entitlement to subvert the foundation of our democracy. You are letting that happen.
