Briefly, what did he say??
I am not entirely cynical about his requests for donations though. He sends out e-mails on many topics and he is one of the very few politicians/conservative groups that puts substantive info in his mailings. Sometimes things I haven't even seen on FR yet which is almost always the first place I hear about things.
He's solid on pro-life issues, pro-2nd A. issues, anti-UN issues and smaller gov./lower taxes. What makes him different than others is he finds and promotes the most effective private orgs, has frequent petitions and submits meaningful bills on a regular basis.
I have no use for his daddy but Rand seems to be pretty grounded and rather relentless about a range of liberty focused issues. My apologies for the long winded reply.
