It's good to see the all or nothing branch of INGO that ALWAYS ending up with NOTHING are alive and well...
I'll rep this.
he gave up a small amount of voters and assured a very large number of voters that he agrees with them. didn't see that one coming....
The war on drugs is very vague. I am for some of it and against some of it. What does that even mean?
as for most of the posts: blah blah blah. Same old INGO junk. "If he doesn't agree with me 100% I can't vote for him even if he agrees with me 90% and the other guy doesn't agree with me at all." Its like 2nd grade all over again.

So he gave up the group that can amass an entire .99% of the popular vote in the last election, to court the votes of what (according to HuffPo) constitutes half of the Republican primary voters... wow, he must be nuts.
Naw. It's just that he wasn't taught math under the Common Core standards.
Now a war on illegal immigration, that I could get behind. Many drugs do have a deleterious effect on society. Addictions make people unable to work and destroy families and lives. Marijuana impairs judgement and reaction time and makes the user unfit for some employment opportunities. Someone generally decides that those affected by addiction need saved from themselves.
I'm all for those people who decide to help addicts paying for their own decision to help. I'm also for the people who decide to use drugs and become addicts being disallowed from leaching off the social welfare system. You can be free to choose the problem if I'm free to choose not to pay for your solution. And get off my lawn.
I will say that Rand is more representative of what I'm looking for when I vote than what Obamney could have every even pretended to be.
There is a stark contrast in "anything but Obama" and not agreeing with Senator Paul on a handful of issues.
However, the more types of incidents like this, the more likely I toss him in the trash bin with the rest... As of right now, I hope he runs and wins the primary.

A vote for Rand is not a compromise. In a compromise you give something up and get something back. With Paul, we give up NOTHING as far as rights we already have, and we get SOME of what we want, and head toward the right direction. I'll take Rand Paul for the win!
Anyone who insists their pols be Simon-pure ideologically might as well give up on politics.
And when the conversation goes to "war on drugs", are we talking about all drugs, or only cannabis. It seems this term can mean different things to different people.

visit theliberalgunclub.com, there are lots of liberal gun owners. So you are satisfied that the Republicans are FOR freedom? Sure, they will let us have guns (although there are so many that are anti-gun) all the while they fully support the Patriot Act, TSA activities, bailing out failing banks, etc. But those are OK since we get guns...wooohooo!!! Yup, NOTHING like the Dems....hahaha
Uh.... No.
Methinks you haven't kept up with my posting history if you think I believe the Republicans are FOR FREEDOM. I don't believe that at all. Not even remotely. And I sure as hell won't vote for either the (D) OR the (R). They've both sold us out.
If you think that we will reverse the damage done to personal liberty with one election - you're suffering delusions of grandeur. The candidate with the best platform and track record will get my vote.
Bush Sr, Clinton, Dubya, McCain, Obama, Romney, Hillary.......and you're caterwauling over Rand not busting up LE's honeypot/legislation of morality.... overnight? He's still head and shoulders above every other candidate I've seen.

Seems they really didn't need anything else. It worked.
I guess I'd have to consider people who broke into my house and stole my guns to be criminals. Crazy, I know. I don't know where I picked up my jack booted thug ideology to even have such a thought.

But what about all of these other people with unsolved crimes? Certainly we can find other ways to toss hundreds of people in jail in the hopes of catching one actual criminal.
They did get Al Capone on tax evasion.
I am a one-issue voter. Liberty
We all say that the gun grabbers aren't compromising when they chip away at what they want incrementally. Not going for everything all at once is not compromising. When you have a plurality of opposing views, it's a useful strategy.

I regret attempting to have a rational discussion with you.
I actually do agree with you. I've said before, the Republicans could get my vote if they would put up a candidate who I thought would try to advance liberty overall, even a little bit. It's been a long time since they nominated one. Romney didn't cut it. They've all been statists, at heart.
I do have to wonder just how much Rand really cares about liberty if he doesn't even support marijuana legalization. But, like I said, I haven't ruled him out completely yet.
