Only fake libertarians are for open borders, or as others have called it "free trespass".
And only fake conservatives don't support reducing the power of the federal government over the individual, for the most part.
Sure, there are legitimate concerns, as Antonio Moss related, but you'll forgive us for putting gay marriage behind creating tax slaves of ourselves, our children, and their children.

Just wanted to drop in and say congrats on your odometer rolling over to 17,000 posts.

It's overly idealistic. Cannot effectively or consistently be implemented. Adherence to its own principles makes it fundamentally incapable of defeating rival political forces that are willing to utilize state power to serve their own ends, thus making it ineffective at actually attaining and holding power. In short, it's not realistic or effective.

So if you truly support a limited federal government, why would any conservative support the Republican party over the Libertarian party?
Not all conservatives care about the things you mentioned. I certainly don't, and I would argue that evangelicals supporting Trump over Cruze indicates that most Republicans no longer make those priorities either.
