Drug use is not a victimless crime. It affects others. (not limited to Marijuana)
The Paul’s views on foreign relations are nieve. I think trade with enemies needs to be rethought, but no foreign relationship with friendly countries is a mistake.
Like it or not, Christians and Jews are forever intertwined. Ignoring that is the point that bothers me the most about the Pauls. As a nation we never had an established religion, but we were largely a Christian nation. That contributed greatly to the stability and honesty in government. Few nations have ever approached that. Poland is an ally that comes close. Israel is also a great ally.
The destiny of the Christians in the West and the Jews in Israel are forever tied together. We look for the same event but from a different perspective. (Einstein’s relativity is good example)
What does that have to do with the Constitution, more specifically the fact the Drug War contravenes the Bill of Rights?
The Drug War isn't 'victimless' either. Drinking causes enormous harm, but through painful experience we learned that that a War on Alcohol is even more harmful.
There are approaches to the fallout of drug abuse that don't involve jailing large swathes of the population, enriching gangs and organized crime, and trampling the Bill of Rights. It's past time to quit reinforcing the failure that is our current approach.

Paul's views on foreign policy align most closely with George Washington, a man with more military and foreign affairs experience in his life than any leader we've had since. I have much more faith in the reason and judgement that drives those opinions than I do the nation builders.
Naive best describes the nation builders, and those that would bury the nation under debt to prop up pet nations that are perfectly capable of defending themselves.
