Then you had damn well better do everything in your power to make sure Romney does not "win" in 2012.

Unfortunately I doubt it. Most of the Republican base is anti-peace, so he'll have to play up how he's 'getting tough' on certain countries like Iran that they don't like. Something he's relatively good at, alienating the small libertarian base to win over larger conservative statist support. Which is absolutely necessary to win elections.

That's why I do NOT fully trust Rand. He is "a little bit pregnant" with statists' poison. But inasmuch as he votes right, I will support him. But I still don't trust him fully. I trust his father MUCH more!

We need to allow tent cities to be built in the parks. That was how people were helped out of the Great Depression. When people aren't burdened with having to pay any rent, they will be more willing to accept working at a crappy job.

Could you please expain to my grandmother what a statist is? She is very distraught right now having just accidently started the dryer without knowing her cat was inside.

But if Obama wins another term, won't that be another four years of him serving without a birth certificate?

They are anti-peace when they examine the death toll inflicted on their sons and daughters in the U.S. military. But they are not belligerent. Rand Paul is one of the few who communicates exquisitely the cost/benefit analysis of costly overseas campaign to registered Republicans, unlike any other politician in the contemporary political setting.

My grandmother started giggling at your response, but she then grabbed a shovel to go out into her potato garden to dig up a dictionary. How does one purchase seeds to plant dictionaries? Oh, you probably think this is nonsense.
What is a dictionary? What is the definition of a dictionary? Why were the first books actually scrolls? What was a traveling troubadour? Why did they have to act out Homer's books?

Why does an idiot need a dictionary? Why do grandmothers use shovels for word references? Why have an intelligent conversation when you can play the fool? All good and deep questions. I leave the answers to you.
Peace.

Rand Paul becoming a sellout?
I never fully trusted Rand, I always thought he was "a little bit pregnant" with statism, and now his belly is showing!
Sad but true. Rand and Ron are MILES apart. (Ron is also imperfect, but he is a better man by a mile!)

I don't like Rand and I don't trust him. But inasmuch as he does good I'll keep posting to this thread.

Are you stupid? If Rand Paul is to have ANY future in the GOP he had to endorse the nominee, Romney, so quit using it against him.

Are you stupid? You cannot fight evil by endorsing it! Rand Paul is a little bit pregnant with statism. He is not a very nice man also how he abused Luke http://mediaroots.org/senator-rand-pauls-true-colors.php
Rand is a sellout and a bully. I hope he repents, but for now, I do not trust him.

Rand never endorsed evil, he endorsed his party's nominee for president because if he's ever going to be president one day he needed to do that. it's that simple.
he's not a sellout or a bully, you're an idiot.
Luke is stupid for even making this an issue and confronting him over and over. Rand is right to ignore him and not want anything to do with these kinds of confrontations.
It serves no purpose and Luke is only doing it to attract attention and be a whiner no matter what Rand Paul does, no matter the fact that he's been fillibustering the PATRIOT act, the NDAA, forcing votes on foreign aid and everything else bad coming up in the Senate that would pass unanimously if he wasn't there.
If Rand is going to run for the GOP nomination then he also has to be seen to be a loyal to the party and its structures. That''s how it works. It's not difficult to understand any of this.

I've been holding back on what I think about Rand for POTUS in 2016.. the more video's of him I watch, the more I think we need him in the senate more than driving the ship so to speak. His vote in the senate and his introduction of bills and speeches on issues in that body are too valuable to lose.
I also think he's too young (inexperienced) to win as a GOP candidate. Yes, Obama had virtually no experience but it wasn't the GOP ticket he ran on.
I am not saying he's not qualified, I just don't think the nationwide GOP voters - esp the older ones will get behind him. If he had had a term of being Governor AND his term in the senate.. maybe.

Lose your principles lose a war. Lose your principles lose your soul.
Rand compromised his principles by endorsing a guy who is opposite to correct principles of liberty in EVERY major point of policy and economics, a guy who promotes the violence of the state and thus tramples JUSTICE and Liberty.
Ron said, "I cannot endorse Romney because that would be against almost every principle I fought for over 30 years." Rand had no such scruples. Rand is a sellout who compromised his principles and his soul for an illusion of power.
He did not understand that he would have had much more power had he remained true to his principles, and supported his Dad to the end, instead of campaigning for his opponent!
He is an idiot in this point! "Yes, I am against murder, but I will campaign for Freddy Krueger."

Like I said you're stupid.
Ron isnt ever going to run for president ever again and when he won delegates and tried to get on the ballot at the convention the party screwed him over.
Like it or not if you antagonize the party they will screw you over. Rand wants to be the party nominee and wants to be president so he has to be nice to them.. this means not antagnozing them, raising money for them, endorsing their nominee and being a team player. Every nominee and president in history has done exactly the same.
This is not selling principles this is simply doing what every politician seeking higher office has done before and will continue to do if they want to actually win or be nominated.
Luke and We are Change can quite honestly get lost and should stop shoving cameras in Rand's face (who is the best U.S Senator by FAR and who fillibusters Patriot Act and and other things) when he's not interested in talking to him about these issues.

There were 2 candiates. Obama or Romney. One of the 2 was going to be president. As a senator, you have to pick 1 and preferably the one in your party. Coke or Pepsi. Rand chose 'coca-cola.' He didn't betray anything in that context. It's not like Gary Johnson or Virgil Goode (who I voted for) could have won, and that Rand's endorsement could have thrown them over the top.
