That ~ 2013-2014 moment was full of possibilities.
Neoconservatism was clearly dying post-Bush, and there was a real chance to have "Ron Paul in the streets / Cody Wilson in the sheets", so to speak..
But it all got hosed, somehow. People weren't ready I guess. And then a reality TV star became President...
It's because boomers vote and they watched fox and CNN. The games they played to squash Ron Paul are pretty blatant. I recall a Daily Show episode that pointed this out at the time.
The Fed and MiC war hawks couldn’t let someone who wanted to end them become president
Your normie parents and grand parents didn't even get to have Ron Paul's name repeated to them by the news they consumed.
