Default Ron Paul endorsed candidate talks about assassinating opponents

Ron Paul gave his gold-dubloon seal of approval to Adam Kokesh in 2010. Two years later, Adam is musing about assassinating Romney.

It should be noted that Adam has a pretty severe haircut.... is there a deeper reason he hates Romney?

(His video is too stupid/disturbing for me to link directly, I don't want to end up on a list)

I'm pretty sure this means Adam Kokesh is banned from the OM, according to Taco's rules.

Libertarians/Classic-Liberals sure hate democracy

Classical liberalism began thriving in the colonies. Those ideas of liberty, democracy, republicanism and religious tolerance helped create the declaration of independence and our constitution.

The language has been hijacked and it's all doublespeak.

19th century classic liberals sound like jerks to me.

----------

Today’s libertarians claim to be the heirs of the classical liberals of the 19th century. Without exception the great thinkers of classical liberalism, like Benjamin Constant, Thomas Babington Macaulay and John Stuart Mill, viewed universal suffrage democracy as a threat to property rights and capitalism. Mill favored educational qualifications for voters, like the “literacy tests” used to disfranchise most blacks and many whites in the South before the 1960s.

"It is quite plain that your Government will never be able to restrain a distressed and discontented majority. For with you the majority is the Government, and has the rich, who are always a minority, absolutely at its mercy. The day will come when, in the State of New-York, a multitude of people, none of whom has had more than half a breakfast, or expects to have more than half a dinner, will choose a Legislature. Is it possible to doubt what sort of Legislature will be chosen? On one side is a statesman preaching patience, respect for vested rights, strict observance of public faith. On the other is a demagogue ranting about the tyranny of capitalists and usurers, and asking why anybody should be permitted to drink champagne and to ride in a carriage, while thousands of honest folks are in want of necessaries. Which of the two candidates is likely to be preferred by a working man who hears his children cry for more bread?" - Thomas Babington Macaulay

----------------
Yeah, in order to preserve capitalism, it's best we not let the hungry vote.
