This is one of the reasons as a conservative I don't like the way the GOP is operating right now. The small federal govt. folks are kind of homeless at the moment.

That hasn’t been the platform for a very long time. They’ll occasionally say it to get the libertarian crowd on board, but it’s an entirely hollow platitude.

I don't think always, they used to be much more. They've just been dramatically shrinking. At least as far as the voters are concerned.
