I’m starting to be wary of these types of articles. Looks like another smear article trying to splinter the anti-government forces of the Right.

If by “hawks” they mean opposition to disamring, I am with them.

If they mean war all the time in every part of the globe, (e.g., John McCainiac, Jorge Bush), I am opposed to the “hawks”.

Experience has taught us that preparedness deters aggression and that weakness invites it.

Rand Paul?

"GO GOP ESTABLISHMENT GO! KICK THAT LOONEY-TUNES PAUL OUT! WHOO-HOO I SO LOVE THE REPUBLICAN PARTY!!" < /Anti-Paul FReepers >

Can anyone point out a major American foreign policy triumph over the past ten years? Is it due to a lack of leadership or poor policy? Or might it just be that the power and influence of the United States and the West is on the wane? American elites have entered a post Christian, neo pagan era that in many ways is decadent. The world does not follow and is not inspired by a declining culture. It will take a lot more than Rand Paul or a few billionaires to fix things,

You mean beyond Syria, the Ukraine, unilateral disarmament, withdrawing ABM from Poland, Benghazi, the Koreas, Iraq and Afghanistan?

Yeah, ‘cause that optometrist is the only thing standing between us and takeover by the Red Hordes.

Rush said today he met with someone off the record who will run.... Hmmm... Maybe from FLA? Who would that be and want the deck cleared.

And let say up front, I won't vote for another Bush...

If he already has two 747 class aircraft, I don’t think he’s going to miss your patronage.

Wanna place a bet on the outcome of that one?

They had better be extra careful, they themselves might get replaced.

Don’t buy into the Rand is Ron carpola. Lets just see how he shakes out on his own. Rand Paul is trying to find his way on foreign policy. Hopefully he will grow into a cogent policy.

Another neocon who wants the goyim to go fight for Jews in the middle east.

Pass.

“The best thing that could happen is Ted Cruz and Rand Paul run and steal each other’s support,” says one of the donors, “but if not, we’ll be ready to take Paul down.”

That should tell you all you need to know about these super rich globalist bastards. They don't want anyone actually putting America's interests first.

[2ndDivisionVet]

Did you ever suppose they did? They’d love to see Hillary vs. Jeb. It’d be 2004 all over again, win/win for them.

I view Rand a lot differently than Ron. He seems poised and thoughtful but he has the same anti-big government fire in his belly. His two major flaws are foreign policy and his inability to emotionally touch his audience when he speaks. There's hope for a change in his foreign policy (Putin may be doing us all a favor along those lines). Dang, I hope he works hard at climbing out of his accountant-type shell and learn how to reach out to his audience.

BTW, I never gave Ron a second thought - I thought he acted looney, even though I later discovered that he was very cogent and lucid about the value of the free market. But on the public stage especially in running for POTUS, he was strange and his foreign policy was cracked. He took on a strange cultist leader persona. I see none of that with Rand.
