A lawyer for the Rand Paul campaign has sent a legal notice to TV stations that ran a hawkish attack ad based on Paul's views on Iran, calling the ad defamatory and asking stations to stop showing it.
The letter is an objection to a million-dollar ad buy by a group called the Foundation for a Secure and Prosperous America, led by Republican operative Rick Reed. The ad, which launched in early primary states on the day of Paul's presidential campaign announcement, accuses Paul of supporting President Obama's policies on Iran and of opposing new sanctions.
"The Advertisement attempts to deceive voters regarding Senator Rand Paul's position on U.S.-Iran relations through at least three false statements," writes Paul campaign general counsel Matthew T. Sanderson in the letter dated April 7, which was obtained by BuzzFeed News on Thursday.

Any body who would say at any time since the Carter administration that Iran is not a threat to the U.S. or Israel is not in touch with reality.
The thought that Rand PAul is even running for President is enough to keep a thinking American up at night.
The Pauls won’t get much sympathy from me, I remember the anti-Gingrich ads they ran.
“Here’s some of Rand’s words, just a sentence tell so much.
I see an America where criminal justice
is applied equally and any law that
disproportionately incarcerates people
of color is repealed”
A new high in affirmative action, a new low for America as drugs, pedophilia and armed robbery become legal. RP must be nuts, both of them, I’m glad to have never considered him or his father.
Not a bad thing. Seems true enough to me. Surprised so much money spent so early when he doesn’t seem to be a great candidate.
Delusional money canadate, the RonRandbots Neonuts think that he can win by infiltrating the party and move the party to the left, but yet claim he is a conservative.
And it’s not just on one issue that he’s wrong.
Neither Rand ever did anything for me, don’t understand their appeal.
Would love to know why they are trying to take him out before he gets a chance to fail on his own.
We’ll just have to agree to disagree on this one. On the outside chance that Paul becomes the nominee, I’ll hope you’re right and I’m wrong about him. Peace.:)
I think we agree that its unlikely Paul will wind up as the GOP nominee...but disagree about whether the possibility is worth losing sleep over at this juncture.
Cheers!
