TIME 100: Rand Paul (By Sarah Palin)
TIME ^ | Sarah Palin

Rand Paul U.S. Senator, 50 By Sarah Palin

When the Tea Party movement wanted to send a message to the Senate in 2010, it elected a clear-sighted eye doctor from the Bluegrass State. In a D.C. too often defined by the venal equivocations of a permanent political class more interested in consolidating its own power than in upholding the Constitution or defending the common good, Senator Rand Paul is a voice of reason awakening the public to what must be done to restore our prosperity and preserve the blessings of liberty for future generations. His brand of libertarian-leaning conservatism attracts young voters, and recently he inspired the nation with his Capraesque filibuster demanding basic answers about our use of drones. I sent him some caribou jerky from Alaska to help keep up his strength on the Senate floor. There’s more where that came from for this bold Senator with 20/20 vision willing to take a stand for liberty.

Palin is a former governor of Alaska

He makes me uneasy on a few points but he is without doubt a breath of fresh air.

read my responses in that thread.

He can’t stop that bill and his amendments will fail.

He’ll probably vote against.

Don’t worry.

This is a blurb for TIME magazine.

She decided to write something nice for Rand’s cover...

It is a shame that Palin decided to contribute to that rag and the profit of that organization.

If we don't start winning Hispanic votes, we will never see the Presidency.

Being hard nosed is going to get Hillary elected.

Illegal alien amnesty will destroy the country this time. It will finish us as a nation in a way that couldn’t be done even by Obamacare.

Thank you Sarah! Rand has been getting bashed here at FR for quite some time now. Totally undeserved and mostly lies and smears. Thanks again Governor Palin.

Then kiss your party (GOP) and this nation good-bye.

You will not win elections by granting Amnesty to 30 million+ Undocumented Democrats.

Just the realism aside, if you consider yourself a principled conservative, you don't try to buy votes by pandering to those who have broken our laws.

Maybe you should go to Pauls’ web site and read his position on illegals. I would prefer a harder line, but Pauls policy is much better the Rubios’, McCrazys’ and Lindas’.

I think we need to do better among all groups:

Hispanics, Jews, Blacks and Muslims.

The Dems are pretty owning all this vote and its cancelling out the white vote.

That’s why Romney lost pretty badly.
