This has been a very good read. I find that the statist/libertarian divide has never truly culminated in American politics. The best example of such is likely the 1920 Presidential election, calling for a "return to normalcy" and a reduction in Wilson's aggressive and authoritarian changes to the nation.
What our focus should be is reducing the state's influence and impact on our daily lives, maintaining and asserting our individual liberties and ensuring that what state exists works for us and not against us. This may seem difficult, but the prospects of ascertaining our liberties is more important than single-issue disagreements.
