1. That assumes the Republican message of "me first" works
Compared with Kucinich, who is bringing in endorsements from the parties and people who left the Democratic Party as it moved closer to the "me first" side, and started favoring corporations over helping real people.

The far right message of fundamentalism, bloated government giving handouts to the rich, corporate sycophantism, and a renewed aristocracy built on top of keeping the poor down does nothing to rope in those arguably "further" to the right, if Libertarian is defined as further to the right.

Other than Libertarians, is there anyone else who has been driven from the Republican Party because it's not far enough right?
