  1. 1. Can Rand Paul shatter the traditional right-left divide and construct a brand new coalition of voters on this issue?

    • Yes. With the era of "the internet of things" at our doorstep, it is time for a national conversation on privacy. The old political models no longer apply.

    • No. Right and left will continue to have meaning in a country that still cares about issues like abortion and affirmative action and taxes. Privacy can take a number.

They could win it if they find a candidate that's going to represent all of the people.

Such candidate doesn't exist. Not for Republicans, not for Democrats, not for any party. For starters, there are fringes on both ends of the political spectrum. You can't represent both of them. And you can't represent either of them and still have pull in the center. So the best you can do is represent the center and try to branch out as far as possible to either side. But any Republican that does that cannot win the primaries where you have to win over the crazies. This is why the GOP made their primaries for 2016 more compact - to limit the general election damage the Republican primary does to their eventual nominee. By the time Romney was the nominee in 2012, he was essentially done.

Libertarians are phony. It's all about personal responsibility and no government until it comes to something they need or want.

No, people advocating for Hillary because it's "her turn" like we're all kids on a fukcing playground who need to learn how to share are the idiots.

People vote for those who represent them. The GOP has long made their disdain for people of color and other minorities well known.
