i'm a firm believer that more power should be given to the states with the federal government's primary duties restrained to foreign policy, defense, and transportation. this sounds like a wonderful idea to me. i think you'll find that evangelical christians would back this as well.

The difficulty with the evangelicals is that the Libertarian platform attempts to be philosophically consistant. The result of that is a lot of social policies that evangelicals would not go for. To be frank, the evangelicals fit best with the Constitution Party.
