Nigel Farage and Tulsi Gabbard are emerging as leaders of a movement trying to  wrest control o their own lives away from governments. From Tom Luongo at tomluongo.me:

There is a realignment coming in electoral politics. It began with Ron Paul in 2008 and has been building for more than a decade. We know this story well.
