In a real sense - Rand is a sell-out. Just like his dad.
It’s one thing to be against abortion or same-sex marriages. But if in fact you claim; “We’ll lose the issue on a national level - lets leave it to the states...”
The then enemy has already won.
I can not support a candidate who waives the white flag while “leaving it to the state”.

I’m all for weakening the federal government.
I firmly believe in state’s rights.
We will be LUCKY if SCOTUS throws the issue back to the states.

Abortion should never have been a federal mandate.

What's wrong with leaving it to the states on these two issues?
I don't see abortion nor gay marriage defined in the Constitution so it seems to me that these two issues should be deferred to the states.

I can not support a candidate who waives the white flag while “leaving it to the state”. A number of states already have same-sex "marriage" - what would a candidate you could support do about that?

DOMA has been in place for over 10 years and gay marriage has proliferated in the states. This is a state issue whether you like it or not. Nothing can be done at the federal level. You are fantasizing about a solution that doesn’t exist.
