When I use the phrase Paultard it is more addressing the fanatics that do not know when to figure out another way. A Paultard is someone that only wants him to run for the discord. He is not going to get the Republican nod, so if you want to make a Libertarian statement, have him run as a Libertarian.

So it's stupid to back someone that is not likely to win? Just give in to the lesser of the evils? Sorry but no thanks.
I don't like getting into this political stuff because I don't know the first thing about politics and hardly know what a Libertarian is because it's a waste of time paying attention to all of that IMO, all I know is the guy seems very honest and straight forward and at the least that is what I personally would like to see in a leader of this country. It's not like any of his supposedly insane ideas would ever pass, so what is the big deal? At least the man tells it like it is and can dumb down his speech for people like me who don't give a damn about politics.
