Rand Paul... on the issues:

I might be able to support him. Sadly, good Republicans become lap dogs. My personal political beliefs fall far more into the Libertarian Party. Rand Paul is still rather "Republican" in his political philosophy.

Yep... He's no mainstream republican... much... but he's no Ron Paul either.

Well, Ron won't run again and Rand isn't as kooky sounding or acting. There was a lot that Ron said I liked, even my yellow dog Democrat dad liked about him, but the foreign policy ideas were way off track and dangerous. Would've never been elected because of it. But he's pretty dead on with fiscal and monetary policy. I could vote for Rand.

I agree with Matthew Kibee of Freedom Works - “We have to defeat the Republicans before we can defeat the Democrats.”

I see the demonization of the right using the same marketing strategy as the anti-smoker campaign and the anti-gun campaign. The moderate Republicans want to destroy conservatives, constitutionalists and Christians as bad as the liberals do.

It is the Constitution. You can't move to a world government until the Constitution is removed and to do that you have to destroy the political power of the "right wingers". This is the last political war and the average voter just doesn't get it.

The biggest mistake the Tea Party and Ron Paul movement made was try and be accepted by the GOP. They did not understand how much they are hated by the moderates who are nothing more than progressives in sheep’s clothing.

Rove, Romney, moderate Republicans, and the rest of them are infiltrators sent in to destroy and remake the party.

I totally agree with you on infiltrators being sent in.

I believe Ron said the other day that he would consider running again.

He knows the Establishment cheated him out what he worked hard for. And I am glad to see people, online and in the new media, still discussing the dishonesty of the Primaries and Convention. We have let Priebus knows how we feel about what he has done - shutting out a group he actually really needs. He doesn't care. They have a whole different agenda.

I recognize that, in all likelihood, Ron Paul will never be the president of the United States. But what Ron is doing is educating a nation. He will be known as the father of our return to the founding fathers ideals.

What he is doing is very necessary and I think he knows that he is fighting for what will likely be someone else's victory but that's what great patriots do. Another great part of what he is doing is that he is not only educating a nation but those who hear him best are the youth of this nation. We may have to wander around in this wilderness until all of the old fogies finally die out like Israel did in the wilderness but there is a hope in the future.

Yes, sir, I totally agree with that and I do receive his e-mails. I always enjoy them. He is like a father watching over us and I do love that about him.

As you know, I wasn't for him as president, but I became more endeared to him as I watched the dishonesty the Republicans threw at him, circumventing his every honest move during the primaries. We cheered as he walked onto the Convention floor with the leis around his neck and booed with them when they ignored the cries of, "LET HIM SPEAK!" We rallied behind him on-line, keeping the information going as to what they were doing to him.

That is a huge reason why Romney lost and he deserved the loss.
