Yes but in a survey most of them at the college age only cared about getting drugs legal.
homosexual care about their agenda
illegals care about getting amnesty
blacks will only vote Dem.

Paul is a media darling especially at OFX because he stands for most of what they want so it’s hardly likely they will vote for a proper conservative because they tend in the past to vote for another liber=tarian anyway,

Paul sold his soul to McConnell last year.

like his dad before.
Liertarians pretend to be republicans only to split the conservative vote.

Have you noticed Paul has not said anything about the religious freedom law in IN?

Why, because he cares more about the homosexual agenda.

This family will not vote for him or Bush either.

One is a RINO and the other is a liber=tarian for drugs, open border, homosexuality, incest, reduced military.

We know who Jebbie Bush is and heard his ideas, nope, next, we heard and know who Rand Paul is and heard his ideas, nope, next, Lizzy Gram, we know who he is and know his ideology, nope, next, see a pattern here ?

We have heard and know who the other guys are,

TED CRUZ HAS the best ideas and he hears us.

Ted Cruz is the only one we should support and ralley around who has the best ideas..... No more canadate shopping in this election season...

Candate shopping is what gave us Obama the last two times.

I think Cruz had better be careful what he asks for.

Just listened to Rand Paul’s speech which was uninspiring to say the least. He had people placed on either side ot the stage with signs that said “Applaud” and “Stand and Applaud”. I guess that is his idea of free speech and freedom of expression. It’s pretty dismal when you have to have prompts for your audience.

He should use some of those matching funds to get himself a better rug. That thing looks like roadkill.

On a Federal level, libertarians are closer than you think to most Freepers.

In addition to what has been mentioned (less taxes, less spending, etc.), both should favor states’ rights to choose on social issues. Defense of the homeland is the same.

Biggest difference is overseas “defense” commitments. THAT is an issue that needs informed and logical discussion. Cruz and Paul may actually make this work.

But when “isolationist” or “neocon” terms start getting thrown around, logic ends and people stop listening.

I have been predicting a re-run of 1860 for several years, that is, four major tickets.

Cruz, because the socons deserve their shot
Paul, because the liberdopians do as well
Warren, or Jerry Brown, or Howard Dean, just because.
And bringing up the rear? Clinton-Bush, or Bush-Clinton.

[Rand Paul’s supporters will be fiercely loyal.]

As Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul ramps up his probable presidential campaign in Iowa and New Hampshire, his dad’s disillusioned supporters are drifting away from him in droves...

I just wonder. So many on FR love cruz for good reason. I wonder what their 2nd,3rd and 4th picks would be. Probably Walker 2nd.

I don’t know how any freeper would like Bush, Christie, Rubio or the rest of the grifters like Graham/Jindal/Huckster.

I’m not sure how Paul isn’t in the mix with Cruz and Walker.

You know that ron paul's offspring is not too confident or he would do what Marco Rubio is doing and not run for the senate as a backstop.

At least rubio, who could run for both, shows some class and is picking only one.

If Cruz can avoid attacking other Republicans, even Bush;

Another great conservative had an "11th Commandment": "Thou shalt not speak ill of a fellow republican." He was a class act too.
