Rand Paul was never going to be ‘my’ guy. But if RP wants to be taken serious, he needs to formulate his ideas/concepts w/ his own words. He can’t be ‘lifting’ whole portions of other people’s work and then say they are his ideas.

RP is now in the situation where anything he has ever written or said is being put under the microscope to see if he used other people’s words and called them his own.

This is not about having a ghost writer/speech writer, IMO, this is about how YOU think...what is YOUR vision. I don’t need words from Wiki or some ‘think tank’. I want to know what you think because that tells me what kind of man you are and if you’ll get MY vote.

Isn't it possible that Rand's vision tracks with what he quoted? Conversely, because someone uses their own words, does that mean that they believe them?*
