No, it is a conservative document. Libertarians are dead set against the U.S. having any foreign interventions at all, while the Constitution contains no such bans. For that matter, the Constitution never explicitly authorized the U.S. military to shoot anyone at all. Yet it authorized the creation and maintenance of a U.S. Military. Clearly it intended the military to be used for purposes not explicity listed in the Constitution. But you'll never get a Libertarian to agree with that... which is one way the Libertarians disagree with the Constitution.Looks like a few people here are making the common error of mistaking Republicans for conservatives.
Some might make this mistake innocently, simply from not knowing what conservatism is, and how it differs from Republicans sometimes do.
Others do it for the purpose of concealing what conservatism is... since the Constitution is a fundamentally conservative document, and it opposes the big-government agenda of most liberals (in both parties). Their attempts to pretend that conservatives have a big-government agenda, .
The Constitution is a LIBERTARIAN DOCUMENT
No authority was granted to invade every country on the face of mother earth
no authority was granted to meddle in the internal affairs of other nations
