Rand Paul

Rand Paul is a Republican, not a Libertarian. He has clearly said so himself. According to the following article: "They thought all along that they could call me a libertarian and hang that label around my neck like an albatross," Rand Paul said in 2010 during his Republican primary campaign for U.S. Senate, "but I'm not a libertarian."

Even the article itself says that he now says otherwise. Also, you speak as if being Republican excludes the possibility of being a libertarian.North8000 (talk) 15:10, 6 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

How do you not have David Boaz, author of THE LIBERTARIAN MIND and editor of THE LIBERTARIAN READER and the person who along with Ed Crane built the Cato Institute?Sajita (talk) 00:53, 11 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

The oversight has been corrected. Boaz is now listed. Sal2100 (talk) 17:43, 12 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
