    No. That’s not at all what “classical liberal” means. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_liberalism …https://twitter.com/joyannreid/status/927184662585151488 …

    “Classical liberal” is an accurate term for a person who supports New Deal economics and social modernity but does not identify as socialist https://twitter.com/jerweber/status/927183753423851521 …

        Absolutely not. Classical liberal goes back to the enlightenment, when programs like New Deal weren’t even a twinkle in John Locke’s eye.

        She didn't say "classic" the synonym of typical or original. She said *Classical Liberal*, a distinct & wholly noninterventionist philosophy

        Joy is correct. Neoliberal = libertarian approach to economics Classical liberal=small govt role Modern liberalism=large govt role

        ? Believing FDR to be a small Govt prez proves you missed some classes.

        Is that the entirety of your political science training? A quick check of the term on google might set you straight.

        There you go. I’m not a political science person, but I’ve read some f’ing history & philosophy. Do these folks not understand the enlightenment & its consequences?

        We can reasonably disagree about this, of course, but to my preferences as one of his constituents: not often enough.

        Oh certainly, it'd be fantastic if his opposition was even stronger, but you have to admit Amash is one of the most critical Rs of Trump

        Lol. The libertarian party is the 2nd worst thing to happen to classic liberalism and libertarianism after Ayn Rand.

        What makes you say that? And what would you prefer be the political vehicle for libertarianism, if not a dedicated party?

        A party could be ok in a multi party system, which we sadly don’t have. *That* party is a disaster as it stands though.
