At least there is a Libertarian argument against socialism because the Republicans and modern Democrats don't stand for much except more socialism.

Well Redcliffsw, somebody has to stand on principle. Libs and Constitutional Party affiliates seem to be about it. Very, very few in DC do. The same probably goes for Topeka.

Here is the Republicrat principle;  https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-08-04/and-here-it-aocs-just-resigned-chief-staff-under-federal-investigation

Seems AOC's Chief of Staff, one Saikat Chakrabarti, just resigned. He is under federal investigation for siphoning funds from PAC's into private hands. Wonder if AOC is one of those private hands? If so, she has learned quickly about the Clinton and Bush families' approach to wealth, steal it one way or another from the taxpayer, all the while promising to help them." That appears to be the Republicrats' principle.

Any way to change that?

Republicans and modern Democrats have no principles.  They don't appear to have any connection to the Founders. 

AOC learned from the Republicans and modern Democrats.  She did not learn from the Founders and that's why she, the Republicans and modern Democrats oppose the Founders and their principles.  Kansas is no different.

Looks like the Libertarians and Constitutional party types are much better and more qualified than Republicans or modern Democrats.

You're right.

That's how I'm seeing the whole picture.
