Ron Paul is incorrigible. Worst, he has zero clue about Islamic fanatics. He needs to read up 1300+ year history of India. He will learn all about spreading religion with threat of decapitation. Only reason India was not taken over by Islam is because a Hindu war lord named Shivaji defeated the Muslim emperor, which halted more conversions to Islam. In other words it took use of a sword to subdue Muslims. The Muslims are now attacking Western countries because they have figured out the resistance is weak there. Has the so called leader of the free world, president of United States even uttered the words Islamic Jihadists? Just like cancer, Islam spreads quietly, and grows silently until it becomes strong enough to kill the host.

All I got to say is why bother? Rand Paul has zero chance of becoming president. He’s on par with John Kennedy, Jr.

Rand is preferable to Jeb, Mitt & Chris.
But that is not saying much!

Among those four, I'd take Mitt without hesitation. But, seriously, I think there is a pretty broad bench for 2016 that won't include most of these four. I'm guessing we will see Walker and Cruz run.

Nothing but a white Obama. His policies are exactly the same, but wrapped in red white and blue. But no material difference on healthcare, Education, islam, illegal immigration and amnesty, gun control, global warming, abortion, etc etc,,,,,

That's like being overjoyed that you stepped into a smaller pile of dog crap than the others that are scattered on your lawn.

I know about that attack back in 2001, but the question was.

“Which western nations suffer more Muslim terrorism than India?”

Your tale in post three seemed to say that India had subdued Muslims, while Western nation’s weakness was causing them to be the top targets of Muslim terrorism.

I don’t think that is the situation, judging by where the majority of Islamic terrorism takes place, and there is a lot of it in India.

*******************************
Exactly. Someone needs to tell Rand Paul to shut up, stop pandering to every oddball group he can find and just do the job he was elected to do as a Senator. ....He’s as bad as McCain, Graham, Durbin and Schuster when he sees a TV camera anywhere nearby. He’ll run over you to get his TV face time.

Here is a quote from Wikipedia, I haven’t tracked it all the way down yet.

“According to a U.S. State Department report, India topped the list of countries most affected by Islamic terrorism.”

Rand Paul On Shutdown: "Even Though It Appeared I Was Participating In It, It Was A Dumb Idea"
I said throughout the whole battle that shutting down the government was a dumb idea. Even though it did appear as if I was participating in it, I said it was a dumb idea. And the reason I voted for it, though, is that it's a conundrum. Here's the conundrum. We have a $17 trillion debt and people at home tell me you can't give the president a blank check. We just can't keep raising the debt ceiling without conditions. So unconditionally raising the debt ceiling, nobody at home wants me to vote for that and I can't vote for that. But the conundrum is if I don't we do approach these deadlines. So there is an impasse. In 2011, though, we had this impasse and the president did negotiate. We got the sequester. If we were to extend the sequester from discretionary spending to all the entitlements we would actually fix our problem within a few years.

Rand Paul: Time for GOP to soften war stance
...by softening its edge on some volatile social issues and altering its image as the party always seemingly "eager to go to war... We do need to expand the party and grow the party and that does mean that we don't always all agree on every issue" ... the party needs to become more welcoming to individuals who disagree with basic Republican doctrine on emotional social issues such as gay marriage... "We're going to have to be a little hands off on some of these issues ... and get people into the party," Paul said.

Rand Paul's immigration speech
...The Republican Party must embrace more legal immigration.

Unfortunately, like many of the major debates in Washington, immigration has become a stalemate-where both sides are imprisoned by their own rhetoric or attachment to sacred cows that prevent the possibility of a balanced solution.

Immigration Reform will not occur until Conservative Republicans, like myself, become part of the solution. I am here today to begin that conversation.

Let's start that conversation by acknowledging we aren't going to deport 12 million illegal immigrants.

If you wish to work, if you wish to live and work in America, then we will find a place for you...

This is where prudence, compassion and thrift all point us toward the same goal: bringing these workers out of the shadows and into being taxpaying members of society.

Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers.12 million more people assimilating into society. 12 million more people being productive contributors.

Rand Paul calls on conservatives to embrace immigration reform
Latinos, should be a natural constituency for the party, Paul argued, but "Republicans have pushed them away with harsh rhetoric over immigration." ...he would create a bipartisan panel to determine how many visas should be granted for workers already in the United States and those who might follow... [and the buried lead] "Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers...

I have to disagree.... Political correctness and lock step thought should be relegated to the left. I constantly roll my eyes at the left for propagating the idea they are champions of free speech but clamp down on any variance and protest speakers who don't tow the line.
Ron Paul is a Libertarian with a capital L... Rand is a pragmatist. If anything it annoys the left that the republican party represents a wider scope of participants.

Rand Paul, Mitt Romney, we still have to point out that they are too far left to be supported by conservatives.
