Ron Paul newslettersEdit

Template:Further

Rockwell was a founding officer and former vice president at Ron Paul & Associates,<ref name=Reason01-08>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> which was one of the publishers of a variety of political and investment-oriented newsletters bearing Paul's name.<ref name=":1">The newsletters had various names: Dr. Ron Paul's Freedom Report (Template:OCLC), The Ron Paul Survival Report (Template:OCLC), the Ron Paul Investment Letter (Template:OCLC), and the Ron Paul Political Report (Template:OCLC).</ref><ref name= ChickAWM>Template:Cite news</ref>

In January 2008, during Ron Paul's 2008 presidential campaign, James Kirchick of The New Republic uncovered a collection of Ron Paul newsletters that contained "decades worth of obsession with conspiracies, sympathy for the right-wing militia movement, and deeply held bigotry against blacks, Jews, and gays."<ref name= ChickAWM/><ref name=Collection>Template:Cite magazine</ref> For instance, one issue approved of the slogan "Sodomy = Death" and said homosexuals suffering from HIV/AIDS "enjoy the pity and attention that comes with being sick".<ref name= ChickAWM/>

Robbins.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>

Rockwell admitted to Kirchick that he was "involved in the promotion" of the newsletters and wrote the subscription letters but denied ghostwriting the articles. He said there were "seven or eight freelancers involved at various stages" of the newsletter's history and indicated another individual who had "left in unfortunate circumstances" and "is now long gone", but whom he did not identify, was in charge of editing and publishing the newsletters.<ref name=":4">Template:Cite magazine</ref> Rockwell has described discussion of the newsletters scandal as "hysterical smears aimed at political enemies."<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Ron Paul himself repudiated the newsletters' content and said he was not involved in the daily operations of the newsletters or saw much of their content until years later.<ref name=NYT2011/> In 2011, Paul's spokesperson Jesse Benton said that Paul had "taken moral responsibility because they appeared under his name and slipped through under his watch".<ref>Jackie Kucinich, Paul's story changes on racial comments Template:Webarchive, USA TODAY, December 21, 2011.</ref>

Mises Institute (1982–)Edit

Paleolibertarianism (1980s–2000s)Edit

Template:Further Rothbard, Rockwell and others described their views as paleolibertarian to describe their cultural conservatism fused with their otherwise anti-statist beliefs.<ref name=":8">Template:Cite book</ref><ref>Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr. "The Case for Paleo-libertarianism" in Liberty magazine, January 1990, 34–38.</ref> They forged a "paleo alliance" between paleolibertarians and paleoconservatives in the form of the John Randolph Club in 1989, which allied the Mises Institute and the paleoconservative Rockford Institute.<ref name=":8" /><ref name=":122">Template:Cite journal</ref>

In a 2007 interview, Rockwell revealed he no longer considered himself a "paleolibertarian" and was "happy with the term libertarian." He explained "the term paleolibertarian became confused because of its association with paleoconservative, so it came to mean some sort of socially conservative libertarian, which wasn't the point at all..."<ref>Kenny Johnsson, Do You Consider Yourself a Libertarian?

Other activities and viewsEdit

File:Lew Rockwell by Gage Skidmore.jpg

Lew Rockwell speaking at an event hosted by the Mises Institute.

Rockwell's paleolibertarian ideology, like Rothbard's in his later years, combines a right-libertarian theory of anarcho-capitalism based on natural rights with the cultural conservative values and concerns of paleoconservatism, and he identifies strongly with the modern Rothbardian tradition of Austrian economics. In politics, he advocates federalist or Anti-Federalist policies as means to achieve increasing degrees of freedom from central government and secession for the same political decentralist reasons. Rockwell has called environmentalism "an ideology as pitiless and Messianic as Marxism."<ref>Rockwell, L. H., Jr. (1990). "An anti-environmentalist manifesto." From The Right, Quarterly II, 1(6), 1.
