I certainly appreciate flexibility in most approaches to solving any problem. But its a mistake to think that every moron's views are equally valid. That is a problem Libertarians suffer from.

You are likely to see this play out with science education on the HS level under Trump. The Conservatives have been dying to abolish the roll of the Feds in setting education standards. They want that to be a State level choice, and then the Red states can water down science standards as they desire. Unfortunately, no matter how many people vote for it, creationism is not science, and evolution is not wrong.

Given his Cabinet of Clowns, the next four years will give you plenty of examples. Bush II also surrounded himself with ideological clowns, and look at how that turned out. People who enjoy lying to themselves for ideological reasons don't generally make good choices in the real world.
