Crappy headline. I don’t think they just give away the nominations.
Rand Paul has zero chance of getting the GOP nomination, but he will very likely run as a libertarian or third-party spoiler, thus assuring that the election goes to the Dim.
Rand Paul is the Ross Perot of 2016. And that will ensure a Clinton winning, just as in 1992.
I do appreciate the input and critique. Balancing headline summary, appeal and the realities of SEO considerations is still a learning curve for us.
So then the real question is... What can be done??
it is GOP that should sit this out.
“So then the real question is... What can be done??”
More and more I feel we have passed the tipping point and the die is cast.
Hitlery would probably be a bigger war hawk than Rand Paul because she would pick up where 0bama lays off by using the military and an amped up DHS to wage war against conservatives, Christians, constitutionalists, veterans and gun owners.
Wars have been used since ancient times to divert public attention from a failing economy and domestic troubles. Don’t be duped by the despot 0bama and support an overseas intervention. Any war will be used by the totalitarian Left to restrict liberty and justify a crackdown on all dissent at home. THAT’S THE WHOLE POINT OF THE LEFT GOING TO WAR!
It’s sad that the US has lost so must respect and influence abroad. But that being said, it would be much more dangerous to entrust enhanced military capabilities to 0bama, Hitlery or any totalitarian Leftist .
We currently have mac, yellow streak, daddy and now paul, head up his as*, ryan who want to be potus.
I’m old fashioned enough to believe that Bush split Perot’s vote, tax-raising GHW stood have stepped aside and let a good candidate win the race. I fail to understand why the letter “R” after a candidate’s name automatically deems him to be the candidate that should be voted for.
Perot would have made a better president than Clinton, and a a far better one than Bush41, but as long as people believe that there should only be two candidates, both pretty much pushing the same agenda but one with the letter “D” after his name and the other with the letter “R” then there will be no change.
If Mike Lee were a few years older.....
He’s almost as nutty as his father.
He belonged back in the early 30’s with the “American Firsters”.
There is NOT LONGER A FORTRESS AMERICA! IF 9/11 proved nothing else, it proved this.
Only the stupid don’t learn.
“There is NOT LONGER A FORTRESS AMERICA! IF 9/11 proved nothing else, it proved this. Only the stupid don’t learn.”
Not with open borders, which I believe Rand Paul supports.
The 9/11 terrorists came here on visas and simply never went home. They lived here illegally as they organized their mass murder plot.
Despite 9-11’s connection to illegal immigration Dubya did exactly nothing to tighten up our borders. Some people are wedded to stupid and the GOPe is living proof.
That leaves.... No reason to vote for him. Sounds perfect for the Republicans of today.

Don't dump your base and expect them to vote for you.

“Anyone who looks upon Hillary Clinton as a “war hawk” is probably smoking that new Colorado pot not made for the tourists.”
Actually she is very much the hawk, she was the driving force behind our invasion of Serbia from what I’ve heard.
Rand Pail will never have my vote.
I have read conflicting statements on where Rand Paul is on immigration, from Tea Party close the border to libertarian open borders.
Is it fair to say he flip flops on the immigration issue?
What does he actually believe on immigration?
Flower child ping!
Summary of this editorial : he's not hawkish enough.
I will you let you bros go first.
I didn’t follow that much: Didn’t we side with the Muslims against the Christians?
Why he should not be given the nomination ? Because he’s a Paul.
