It will be many things to attract many audiences, but the heart of it is an intellectual toolbox developed to counter and combat all the tropes that anti-liberty uses against liberty. Such immediate utility as a database of hot-linkable memes that activists can publish when tropes are deployed against them. Such longer term utility as a veritable encyclopedia of knowledge experience and weaponry to use in the fight to restore and preserve liberty to men.
One of the immediate usefulness for a liberty anti-trope repository will be Rand Paul 2016, where one of our goals will be to flood the market with "liberty anti-trope material" in an effort to end the appeal to idiocy before it even starts. This will be absolutely critical to any Primary effort, I think. It is mostly Republicans who are actually afraid of Republican liberty.
Dufus advocates for regulatory preference in religion. You tell him government has no business in religion at all. Visceral argument goes Gnarf! whaddyawant (to encourage) a moosie (?) near you? or somesuch

GNAAAARF! Rite man keep that sht over THERE in muzzieland! Fight the terrists overe there so's we dun hafta fightem heah
lol no, that's just how they decided to import it. [image] US police stomping in a domestic door with the caption: "Two dead, nothing criminal found, just another day at the office." [image] cop fistbang
Enlist the assistance of liberty movement luminaries in hunting down actual tropes in the real world and cataloguing them, like an anthropologist going out to catalogue species. Among other attractions to the site, index these such that ""if you believe in liberty, then these are the common weapons they will use against you. Here therefore is the information that will destroy that attempt. Here are hot-linkable memes and embeddable videos to counter such a tactic. Here is a brief overview of the world-view that causes them to use this trope against you, and here is a brief layout of the means to logically destroy the argument within his worldview, as well as a reference to another section on the logic to destroy his actual worldview itself. Here is an in-depth, multi-sourced and peer reviewed article discussing the subject at length.
Once you get a structure laid out and basically crystallizing, open it up to community collaboration like wiki, but also take care both limit and peer-review and 'score' the liberty-quality on a contribution basis for corrective action in the event of topic-drift.
Antitropic memes, antitropic arguments, and data and references, along with periodic articles from a handful of writers.
Make it really easy for everyone to kill the tropes, and it will give all of our political candidates a tailwind, or at least it will kill a pretty bad headwind, which I can tell you would be enough to help a lot to get our message elected. All of us as a philosophy get troped harder than anybody because we are aliens. Us running for office the most. So I'm thinking a massive multirole trope destroying database, where anyone who wants to go out and fight for liberty can come find all the weapons and equipment they need. Indexed, and sorted by order, topic, impact, or politeness.
I think if we give every liberty warrior in the world, all the intellectual tools they could ever seek to "go forth and defend liberty" that will ultimately have a profound impact on the general public acceptableness of the argument for liberty. When a liberty-inspired candidate runs, their enemies will find the ground wholly eroded out from under them by a movement of which they were completely unaware...
Basically an Alexander's library of pro-liberty argument fundamentals material and references.
In addition, there would be a series of luminaries writing periodic articles, with both select and public commentaries. Select commentaries functioning as peer review.
I hope I'm not getting too far down into the weeds, but I have an idea for a project that is a website, that could help our candidates across America, including Rand Paul. Although that website would by gravity eventually become a "wiki-like" community I do not want it to be competition with RPF's, I would rather hope more in the way of a collaboration and most preferably sich so that if this project got a ton of traffic RPF's would get more also.
The point of the site being to provide a indexed and databased library of material for a liberty warrior to easily win every argument they encounter, intellectual or otherwise. Because of the nature of our philosophy, this is not something that our enemies could easily use against us, and even if they anticipate our arguments the wiki can get updated and expanded and offer a dozen arguments to pick from.
