Whatever happened to the Ron Paul Revolution?

The way that Bernie was able to get support this election leads me to believe that Ron Paul probably could have run again and did about as well as before, or maybe better. The only reason he didn't run was because Rand wanted to run. But to answer your question, I don't believe his supporters could be united again. For example, most Bernie supporters say their second choice is Hillary, so it's not like they're some monolithic group that would actually do anything crazy, like vote LP, if their first choice wasn't there. Ron Paul's support goes right to whatever neocon republican is popular this cycle

You, obviously, don't understand libertarians.

Ron Paul's support was not all libertarians

So am I wrong in suggesting that there's any significant overlap between Ron Paul supporters, this year's Rand Paul's supporters, and the Tea Party? It sounds like while the TP is in favor of some of the policy ideas that's on the same road to libertarianism (starve the beast, cut taxes, government out of many places), the people supporting Rand Paul and the people supporting Ted Cruz have little to no overlap at all.

It seems in most of the polls, Trump gets the majority of Tea Partiers
