I went to our link. It sounds alot more reasonable when you actually read the quote.

“Slavery was phased out in every other country in the world,” Paul continued, responding to the question if America would still have slavery had there not been the Civil War. “The way I’m proposing that it should have been done is do it like the British Empire did — you buy the slaves and release them. How much would that cost compared to killing 600,000 Americans?... I mean, that doesn’t sound too radical to me. That sounds like a pretty reasonable approach.”

Paul also criticized Reagan for not reducing the government to a “constitutional size.”

Wow, but not surprised.
You challenged mnehring to show a source that Paul said Reagan was a failure, provided the link and you agree with Paul. sigh
