If the answer is Rand Paul, then the question is stupid.

"Any law that disproportionately incarcerates people of color is repealed."

I heard this at lunch and lost my appetite. Can he really be that dumb?

and...........Rand Paul used a teleprompter to give his speech...Ted Cruz didn't need one...

That is the first big notice of difference...Class and Character, like them both but one more than the other...so we will continue to support TED CRUZ...

There will be many for us to chose from, but the First impressed me most at this point...will stick by him..

Poor dumb Democrats, chose Hillary and we plan to trash her with BENGHAZI MURDERS, and the mess she made of the emails, and let us not forget the eight years of her accused rapist husband.

i think taking on the corrections industry is a good one. There are TONS of money being made on incarceration.

Rand Paul trying to think that blacks will come out in their millions and vote for him.
Yes he is that delusional and will say anything what he needs to say to get this nomination.

The answer is to incarcerate 3 white people for muder for every black. We can determine who to incarcerate by lottery using draft numbers.

Facts are facts:

Black males aged 15-34 are only 3% of the total US population.

2012 FBI Statistics:

54.9% of all Robberies

49.4% of all Murders

34.1% of all Aggravated Assaults

32.5% of all Forcible Rapes

This has to be the shortest campaign in American history. Announce in the morning, finished by mid-afternoon.

wow Rand just announces he is running for President and he has already jumped the shark. Not sure if I have ever heard quite such a stupid statement from a pub candidate before

By endorsing the “disparate impact” fallacy, that idiot Rand Paul has declared himself a Social Justice War and a member of the Left. Not only does he need to drop off the Presidential radar screen, he needs to be voted out of his current seat.

Exact quote:

I see an America where criminal justice is applied equally and any law that disproportionately incarcerates people of color is repealed.

Rand says America needs more White Thugs?

You know, to be fair.

“Any law that disproportionately incarcerates people of color is repealed.”

If this quote is accurate and in the proper context, and I suspcet that to be the case, then this proves that Rand is no different than the rest of DC. He is simply spewing populast rhetoric without any serious thinking.

I was willing to listen to his case then he:

1. Endorsed Mitch McConnel
2. Attacked Voter ID requirements
3. Had a snarky response to Cruz’s announcement
4. Is now spewing populist rhetoric!

...while it's clear that's not what Paul actually wants to do...

Really?

He said that in his vision for America, "Any law> that disproportionately incarcerates people of color is repealed."

He said "any law". He could have worded it any way he wanted to word it, but he said "any law".

"Any law that disproportionately incarcerates people of color is repealed."

The key word is "disproportionately". Who makes that determination and how is it made? Also, why is it relevant if more "people of color" are committing that crime. The issue should be if the act should be a crime, not a racial breakdown of those who commit that crime.

“Any law that disproportionately incarcerates people of color is repealed.”

There is only ONE!
Crack vs. powdered cocaine.

In ALL other cases it is the BEHAVIOR, and NOT “the law”.

What about white collar crime? Overwhelmingly committed by whites, so do they get off as well?
