Rand is the man... Sadly, he has no chance @ the presidency. He is too un-establishment, which is almost always a major disadvantage. I enjoy his philosophy and campaign though and wish America would be smart enough to elect someone whose policies reflect the importance of following the constitution... oh well. Happy new year to all

You know, all of this "WE MUST DESTROY ISIS USING EVERY MEANS NECESSARY!" shit that Ted Cruz, et al keep spouting out really scares me.

Look what happened last time. GWB launched a giant intelligence machine that now gathers petabtyes upon petabytes of data on US citizens and has given NSA, CIA, etc. the ability to track just about everything.

I'm all for safety, but goddamn...when I can't buy a Ring Ding at the Kangaroo without my cell phone and credit card being tracked, something's wrong...

Of course, advertising agencies and big data analysis warehouses also share a part of the blame.

Unfortunately, he won't be a candidate, so I'd support the 2nd best option: Sanders

Please, his father campaigned on better principals twice before, the closest he came to presidency was at the very competitive position right after Iowa in 2012 (3rd but only trailing the others by a few points). IMO the campaign got fucked after that, wrong targeted advertising, wrong ads etc. Also I feel the campaign gave up on giving grass roots supporters the amount of support necessary and Ron Paul was on the podium because of grass roots support...

As for Rand, the guy learned how to talk by being around his father, anyone who was involved with the 2008 campaign will know Rand's never been a 'champion of liberty', he's just a conservative who got really lucky with who gave birth to him considering his 'game'. Trust me, Obama 2.0 right here as far as promise the world, win and act like a total shill. Right after Ron Paul's last campaign MANY of Ron's supporters made it clear they respected Rand as Ron's son but wouldn't vote for him or respect him as a politician. The only people who will vote for Rand are 1, Old Ron Paul supporters who where just rich and wanted no/less tax 2, People new to the Paul family/politics who actually believe politicians words over actions. Go look at Ron's voting history, look at Rands. Actually, before you do add a random conservative, compare the three and reply with if you can tell who's who.

Sorry, just felt a certain type of way over thios topic because Rand just is't Ron, nor will he ever within reason dream of having his fathers legacy. His father was a carrier of an idea so amazing I bet if some crazy came at him with a gun his supporters would put there life on the line protecting him with more conviction then the secret service protecting Obama.

Rand Paul? The same one who believes employers should have the right to make their employees work 18 hours a day for a few cents an hour and have no laws to back them? That rand Paul? The same rand Paul whose father was caught taking money from fucking neo nazis? Jesus Christ, you guys only care about being able to buy drugs from the Internet and not get caught and nothing else.
