Rand Paul Wants Bigger GOP: ‘You Go to a Republican Event and It’s All White People’
mediaite ^ | April 26, 2014

Posted on 04/26/2014 5:50:40 PM PDT by Bigtigermike

Paul, according to CNN, also talked about making the Republican party “bigger” and much more inclusive, saying that unless Republicans “broaden their message” to reach more people, winning future elections is going to be a bit of a problem.

“You go to a Republican event and it’s all white people—not because we’re excluding anybody, but because we just haven’t done a good enough job encouraging people to come into our party.”

So he’s a plant? Because that’s the kind of $#*+ we’ve been hearing from the media, left-wing blogs, pundits, DNC and Soros people since at least 2007.

So, it’s not the message. It’s that the message isn’t getting out to blacks. This man is an idiot.

What we are learning about Paul, is that a lot of this talk is about changing the GOP platform to a much more liberal platform on social issues, abortion, gay marriage, etc.

Much of his language of “youth”, “evolve”, “grow the party”, is cover for his wanting to move the party left.

Idiots like Rand Paul are why we are going to lose in November when we should have a rip roaring win.

Can’t this guy just STFU and sit down? For one day?

Bundy is starting to look like a genius compared to RP.

Hey Rand, how about concentrating on the opposition party and actually offering conservative solutions to their various depravities.

The Answer is always Principles.

Don't Pander and Say "We Gotta Get The Black Vote, The Mexican Vote, The Jewish Vote , The Mongol Vote etc etc"

Just stand for what you know is right and people will figure it out for themselves.

Sort of why we are winning with the Global Warming Issue. They Built that out of a false foundation and in fell in on Gore and his ilk.

But Wait! You can't Beat The Party of Santa Claus!

Yes, But Remember, Santa Claus isn't real....... Everyone finds that out eventually.

Rand Paul is obviously lobbying to become the GOPe “moderate” candidate in the 2016 primary season. He’s sounding all the right RINO chords.

Paul is putting down conservatives again.

This is the third or fourth issue of his attacks this week
since joining Team Romney.

Another Paul trying to again make the GOP the party of Sheehan.

There are plenty of us trying to demonstrate why minorities are better served by Republican ideas, but they ain’t listening. I hope Rand wasn’t suggesting we go more Dem-lite to attrack non-whites.
