Do you really think Republican members of Congress in the heartland red states (Kansas, Iowa, Nebraska, the Dakotas, etc) would support his position to end federal agricultural subsidies? or Republican members of Congress in Texas and Alabama (with huge space industry facilities that employ thousands) to end funding for NASA? or any red state with large middle class populations that support the pell grant program and numerous other programs that directly benefit their constituents?
Not to mention that the Repubs would have to end their mantra that "terrorism is the number one threat to the nation and thats why we need the Patriot Act and warrantless wiretapping".
How about Ron Paul's position to abolish medicare.....there goes Florida.
