I'm done with Ron Paul, really don't care what he has to say going forward. And yep, that will somewhat affect my view of the son.
Rand Paul’s pandering has proven him to be more liberal than libertarian.
Listen, if Rand Paul’s dad is a potential problem for him, then you can be certain beyond all doubt that Ted Cruz’s dad will be hung on him by the libs like the corpse of Mussolini on a lamp post.
The fact is that like it or not the sins of the fathers are visited on the sons - at least in the minds of many. Sad to say.
I hope that for those of us fortunate enough to have good conservative values will judge the man and not the libtards’ caricature.
He has no chance because he exists outside of the Crowned Heads of the Republican Party.
Do only psychopaths, thieves and narcissists go into politics?
Candidate of last resort, so far but that may change if he says anymore stupid stuff. If not Ted, or Scott, then maybe Rand but probably not, he hasn’t been very good lately.
No shot on target because he is a loose canon ?
Continuing the family tradition of their daddies: the Pauls and the Romneys are professional runners-for-president.
Rand’s biggest problem to date is that he has become squishy on issues and seems to be contradicting earlier stands. There seems to be no group that he will not pander to. He seems to be trying to be all things to all people, and that makes him appear to have little substance.
"He inspires the conservative and libertarian wings of the Republican Party."
I stopped reading right there. Where has this author been the last few years? ...or for that matter, the last six months? When was this pathetic narrative conceived?
There may have been a brief moment in time, back in 2008, even 2009 -2010 when Rand clearly distanced himself from his nutty dad's political positions. Since then, Rand has gone bonkers - going so far as to aid and abet Sharpton's vision.
Rand Paul doesn't have a chance in gaining Conservative's support for a 2016 run for POTUS.
I don’t think Rand Paul will actually even run. Why give up a senate seat for an iffy chance at the Presidency? He’s a good voice for personal freedom in the Senate. At Rand Paul’s age he would be better positioned in 2020 anyway.
Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, Dr. Ben Carson and Bobby Jindal
