Fair enough, but the candidate seems to believe, and there are plenty here who can correct me if I’m wrong, that one does not have to disagree with conservatives on social issues in order to feel that government’s role in social issues should be limited.
In other words, there is no inconsistency is saying:
“I think there should be prayer in schools.” and saying, “I don’t think the federal government should ensure that there is prayer in schools.”
If fact, if you truly believe that people have a right to worship, then by definition, you believe that people have a right not to worship, and you find equally a government that enforces worship and one that enforces its exclusion.
Now I’m not the candidate, but that seems to be his view, and in my opinion, that view is a good one.
Hi neighbor :-)
If you had seen my post #44, I had gone on to say that I had no problem with Rand Paul’s position on this issue.
P.S., IMO, the Federal Government’s role in social issues depends on the particular social issue under consideration.
