I’m all for him but can he ever deliver in time though?

At least he, Cruz and Rubio seem to have enough bravery to fight instead of keep whimpering.

Of course you're right. He needs to focus on reversing the size of the federal government and its pernicious and increasing influence in our individual lives.

All a president needs to do is get that right and the rest will necessarily follow.

Sadly, the GOP will collaborate with the left in destroying him.

I saw a snippet of his speech on my local news show and wanted to go “YESSSSSSS!!”

I don’t always agree with Rand Paul but, everyone so often, he says or does something that REALLY resonates!

He should start right now by calling for it to be renamed the “Department of Indoctrination”

So his plan to give Amnesty to 2 million Illegal Aliens every year doesn't bother you, right?!

Only if he doesn't do it to himself by supporting Amnesty and going soft on the social issues first.

Paul could turn out to be the GOPe’s worst nightmare. He seems to be in tune with ‘the facebook generation’, which could be a significant factor in 2016.

During his filibuster, tens of thousands were following on Twitter and other social media. And participants in those social media tend to be liberal.

NO so! His father, Ron Paul, made the mistake of hanging onto counterculture and permissive views on drugs, crime, illegal aliens, and new age sex.

Rand Paul in this speech mentioned his adherence to some of these.

Will Rand adjust to the morality of the Conservative? He had best soon make up his mind, as many of us are making up our minds NOW!

hes losing me as time goes as he seems to be saying the same as his nut case father.

Dept of education , OK but what shall we do for education as he has not mentioned that part.
Like someone told me once last week.
Libertarians say some great stuff but in the real world it doesn;t work and it;s all about a fantasy do what ever you want world

What;s next get rid of the FBI, CIA and then the border patrol like his father?

He;s all for the illegals, he threw a present to the homosexuals about marriage recently.

Rand is libertarian, one with conservative values.

Permissive views on sex, drugs and victimless crimes make sense to libertarians.

I can live with it. I want to see freedom and less government. Lot less.

There isnt anyone else who can do it. Conservatives are in disarray and could not win a cakewalk. RINOs are more of the same and everyone knows it. In this increasing police state, freedom allows everything else to follow.

With freedom you can get the conservative things you want down the road. Without freedom you are a cog in the leftist machine. Enslaved for a long time.

________________

Yes, he said return it to the states.

I would love to see the TSA eliminated since it seems to be Hussains new army.

Homosexual stuff is already here. I rather deal with as a free man, not as a slave.

Illegals we are getting them one way or another. Again I prefer Rand at the helm.

homosexuals are here but does not mean we let them have their sick twisted feces sex agenda.
If homsoexuals get their way then the first amendment is gone for religius freedom, then people will be slaves becauseif one speaks up they will be jailed as they do in the UK and other places

illegals would be stopped if people started to stand up, I know about immigration and what it takes

TSA hell yea let it go private as well as AMTRAK

Return to states I can go for but what happens when one state is easy to get A’s and the other is tough to get A’s but then colleges will have different marks to get in.

Sorry but Paul makes some good ponts but his illegals and now homosexual agenda is losing me if not lost me
