Mark Sanford: I'm Running For Congress!

[SpreadOfLiberty]

We've already seen how he voted and acted for more than a decade.

It's not me who it needs to be proven to.

Awesome.

How would you explain Sanford's anti-gay, anti-marijuana legalization stances? These are not qualities of a liberty candidate.

I don't know about his marijuana views but the liberty movement is neither pro or anti gay.

Those are state level issues my friend. If someone is fiscally conservative, is opposed to the wars and wants a Fed audit, they're good enough for me. If we can get the GOP being perceived like this, we can win over the heart of America and quickly improve our stakes.

Does he believe that it should be left to the states, or does he favor the marriage amendment and federal marijuana status quo?

Since you brought it up and referred to "Sanford's anti-gay, anti-marijuana legalization stances," maybe you can share your source with us and explain exactly what those stances are.

Sanford opposes the marriage amendment but like Dr. Paul (and every other elected Paulite or Paul-leaning) he opposes any form of gay rights. Similarly, he opposes marijuana legalization, and presumably also medical marijuana. As to its decriminalization, I don't think he has ever had a position on that.

That's the downside of working within the GOP - you have to be a socially conservative dummkopf.
