P.S. I doubt Dan Riehl would be a "true conservative" as measured by the graph. He's not a big defense kinda guy, but nevertheless touts himself as an ideological gatekeeper.
Commentary and analysis on American politics, culture, and national identity, U.S. foreign policy and international relations, and the state of education - from a neoconservative perspective! - Keeping an eye on the communist-left so you don't have to!

Libertarians--the upper case L: are an intellectual movement with no actual social basis outside of bookish theory and hence is pure ideology. While the neo and paleo contrast shows a cultural shift as demonstrated by actual American character. Mr. Ron Paul and others are of a paradigm that starts of paleoconservatism and ends infringed upon by Libertarians. Using the upper-case spelling demonstrates the ideology and not just the party of Libertarianism. While libertarian (lower-case) is the antithesis of authoritarian.
If small government isn't mandatory, what in earth does conservative mean? Can a socialist who is socially conservative and hawkish be a conservative? Surely the one thing that united conservatives from the 1950s on was their opposition to communism and big government.
I'd ask a different question: can big government Republicans be part of CPAC?
