    Really? That's the best you can do?

    "Rand" is short for "Randal."

    I heard him speaking on the fiscal cliff and deficit issue on the radio today......and I was impressed. I'll have to learn more about him, his record, and listen to him more.....but for now, he seems reasonable and like someone I might could get behind and support.

    As far as Hispanics.....both sides had a chance long ago to get a comprehensive immigration legislation through and signed. Bush tried very early in his administration....2004. And again in 2005, and 2007. Both sides, including Democrats cried "amnesty" and shot it down. Senator Barack Obama was one in 2007 who helped place the last nail in that coffin. It was a reasonable plan.....guest worker permits (which the Unions fought and is a major reason Democrats didn't support it).....paying a fine, working towards citizenship and learning English. ALL the things Dems now say they support....but didn't, of course, as long as George W. Bush was going to get credit for its passing. NOW....Obama says he supports many of the same things. Of course, he says that publically.....but I'm betting his Union base is telling him something different. I can't remember at the moment if Rand Paul was in Congress back then.....but if he was, we need to look at how he voted on that immigration reform legislation.

    He was first elected in 2010, so no, he wasn't.

    All I know is that the #1 deciding factor for me in a candidate is his name.

    -Believes in NO LAWS. cut police cut EVERYTHING

    Obama

    Goods
    -Believes in having somewhat of a military
    -Would actually do something if we got attacked.... although im starting to doubt that after his actions after benghazi

    Bads
    -Ultra pro abortion
    -Ultra pro illegal immigrant

    I'm sure this will be reasonable and intelli-

    Uhm...wut? ._. Exactly where did he say that?

    And privatizing the military is NOT "no military."

    Absolutely incorrect. Rand Paul believes in non-interventionist foreign policy, meaning you only intervene in the affairs of other nations if there is a guaranteed threat to your national security. 9/11 counts.

    Where did he say no laws or police?

    Rand Paul = Third Great Republican Depression. That's assuming we ever get out of this Second Great Republican Depression!

    Nowhere in your videos did Paul say he "opposes civil rights". You just made that up, be a man and admit it.

    I think you are confusing Rand's positions with Ron Paul, his dad, but even then you wouldn't be accurate. Ron Paul never said we shouldn't have a military. He wants to drastically cut back our military size and position overseas, but his son Rand has said numerous times that he disagrees with Ron on foreign policy. Rand would probably support less intervention as well, but no where near the level that Ron Paul would. Neither Ron nor Rand have said they wanted "no laws". Where did you get that from?

    You need to do some research on their actual positions.
