Sen. Rand Paul on Friday met with George P. Bush, a rising star in Texas GOP politics, to discuss how to broaden the Republican Party’s appeal in diverse communities. “Really I wanted to get advice from him, as much as anything, about how the party grows in Texas and states with large Hispanic populations,” Paul (R-Ky.) told POLITICO backstage after stumping for a state senate candidate here.
Bush recommended “showing up” in those communities, Paul said. The senator, who has said he is seriously considering a 2016 presidential bid, often talks about the importance of growing the Republican Party, and has made it a point to reach out to minority communities. Bush, the son of former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, is running for land commissioner here, and as a Hispanic Republican — his mother is from Mexico — has been a vocal advocate for expanding the GOP tent.
“He’s very personable and I love to see the young faces, the new faces, maybe in the party,” Paul said of Bush. “I also think he brings a lot to the party as far as being a fluent Spanish speaker.”

Rand Paul has a disturbing habit of skirting the wrong side of several issues. I am losing confidence in him.
Ah yes, those “natural conservatives” who agitate to reward lawbreakers, who vote for Hussein and the gibmes in spite of their “strong family values”. The GOP wouldn’t think of just reaching out to their base, white males and white married women, because they’re in on the effort to make that base extinct.
Republicans are in a mid-life crisis. Conservatives are their faithful first wife that gave birth to their kids, and hispanics are the new hot blonde with a boob job that the party has it’s eye on now.
How about just reaching out to all Americans and quit dividing it into groups..
Hey, why stop there? We could expand the base even more by the supporters of the sodomite agenda, supporters of abortion, and expansion of the government and the welfare state.
I never had any. He is blowing his auditions.
I never really liked Rand Paul anyway
Runt Paul is a turd in the punch bowl Liberaltarian, just like his old man!
Hispanic outreach? What does that mean?
Hispanic outreach = Reach out and grab them by the scruff of the neck, drop-kick their ass back across the border!
It’s old-school hispandering, just with a ‘positive’ connotation.
Kissin’ ass with a Bush! Something about this guy says don’t trust him.

What a concept! Think they will ever think of it themselves?
Exactly.
You’re either an AMERICAN or you aren’t.
I am sick and tired of these pansies pandering to the PC turds.
At first I liked his approach.
Now that I am hearing more of him, the familiarity is breeding contempt.
Thank God that TED CRUZ is remaining solid and steadfast.
It just occurred to me that, if George P. Bush were elected president, he’d be George III.
I am a solid Constitutional conservative that believes in some Libertarian principles.
No where near the degree that Ron Paul does, but some.
Because only an idiot like Ronald Reagan would do that. Sheesh! /s
Message to Rand: Hispandering and Shamnesty is what DemocRats do. Why do Conservatives need you and your party? You are a moron.
