He is very impressive and after watching him speak today, I am convinced that we need more like him in government.

Anyone what this little smarmy turd from CNN interview Rand on CNN?

How Rand did not throw the mike down and walk away...I don't know. Unbelievable. Rude...lecturing. Condescending. Interrupting.

I want to scream.

President?
I don’t think so.

He’s faking a good game so far but in the end, he’s a geek studying to be a kook.

I’m not here to proselytize for Rand Paul - and I agree his dad is a nut - but anyone who would like to learn more about Senator Rand Pauls views should take a few minutes an read his Budget Plan that can be found here:

I’m not sure I’d support everything he says, but I absolutely agree that this is how you get serious about cutting federal spending and getting back to a Constitutional role for the federal gov’t.

And for putting that on paper, Sen. Paul deserves our appreciation.

Rand Paul is much more articulate than his father. Even bad speakers are more focused than Ron Paul is; he is both bad and terribly unfocused. Rand Paul, on the other hand, is a decent and focused speaker. I think this would make him an effective leader for Senate Republicans. He would be much more effective than McConnell, and make Reid look like an utter moron, which, albeit, isn’t exactly a hard feat. Either that, or he could be whip along with DeMint as leader. That team would be excellent, in my not so humble opinion.

No to either one... duplicity is in the DNA.

Rand is a slicker version of Ron.

They both aim to dismantle our military.

Read the Libertarian Party platform to learn their aims.

I have been saying it since his Senate campaign, this is the RIGHT PAUL! All the small government goodies w/o all the, ya know....crazy.

If a half Kenyan mulsim communist son of a whore can be POTUS, Rand Paul sure can.

Pushing freshmen senators/congressmen to run for the highest office in the land is how we got into the mess we’re in now!

I have absolute respect for Rand Paul.

Let's see Rand Paul get some difficult legislation through the Senate with his name on it first. He appears to be doing a great job in his first half year, but there are more skills he needs to demonstrate before he can be taken seriously as a president.

Our country is not capable of electing a president who lacks basic leadership skills -- right?

Has he pledged that millions of American boys will be required to die if necessary on behalf of a recently created country that sucks at the tit of our taxpyers?
If not ....
well he must be a bad person,

Rand Paul is the real deal.

If he were president, we might still have two houses of congress run by Dims and Establishment/Big Government Republicans but he would tie them in knots with his veto pen if nothing else.
