He came in 2nd in the 1st primary and ended up winning the majority of delegates in that state and the media didn't even mention that. This isn't about straw polls this is actual delegates that were cheated during the election, not that it matters now anyways but you can't spin the facts that there was major fraud going on during the whole election.

the 'old white men' and the 'hippy/yuppies' are exiting stage left.....

entering: terminator generation OR 'fear of' generation

those will be the foundations on which we will ride based upon the seeds sown by the previous 'old white guy' and 'hippy/yuppies'

the word freedom got lost in translation and under a bunch of colored plastic wristbands for causes....


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

Quoted from CICERO


This isn't about the next election cycle.  This is for after the boomer generation clears the system or their numbers are reduced to a minority.


i have to disagree......it is the older boomers that remember what freedom WAS and how much they have lost. it is the boomers that are enraged with their government. HOWEVER....the boomers are looked upon as OLD, FRAIL AND MINDLESS and incapable of CHANGE....and paul knows that.

so the boomers have already had their voices silenced by the rhetoric. so now it's up to the youngin's and paul knows that too.

the unreachable boomers are the 'left over, pot smokin' tree huggin' war mongering brainwashed hippies'.

Rand Paul changes his position on Drones...
Then Changes his position back to where it was before he changed it...
Well he sorta changed it back,  but sorta not...
Very confusing
!  

Quote Paul:
"If someone comes out of a liquor store with a weapon and $50 in
cash, I don't care if a drone kills him or a policeman kills him."


Sen. Rand Paul flip flopped Tuesday in which he endorsed the hypothetical killing of an armed
robber by a drone, a day after he took the controversial stance.

Quoted Text
"My comments last night left the mistaken impression that my position on
drones had changed," he said in a statement Tuesday. "Let me be clear: it has not.
Armed drones should not be used in normal crime situations. They only may only be
considered in extraordinary, lethal situations where there is an ongoing, imminent
threat. I described that scenario previously during my Senate filibuster."

Speaking on Fox Business late Monday, Paul seemed to contradict his opposition
to drone strikes on American citizens. "Here's the distinction: I have never argued
against any technology being used when you have an imminent threat, an act of
crime going on," he said. "If someone comes out of a liquor store with a weapon
and $50 in cash, I don't care if a drone kills him or a policeman kills him.


Paul's waffling, much like his dads classic goofs, isn't helping his pathetic 2016
presidential bid!

Rand Paul, still trying to 'clarify' his drone policy

"In the famous words of George W. Bush,
I think I was misunderestimated," Rand Paul said.


Quoted Text
Paul presented situations where drone technology may be a viable form
of defense, reinforcing his belief that there must be a credible threat.

"If the Twin Towers are being attacked, that's deadly force being used against
America and Americans," he said. "There is the right to defend ourselves with deadly
force."

Hannity asked him to clarify, asking if drones in major cities should be available
if an incident like this were to occur. Paul explained that law enforcement has
the "justified obligation to fire back," regardless of the form used.


To summarize Paul's 'Drone's in America' Views:

Paul was against Drones...
then for them, sort of,
then against them...
and finally, Sometimes for them, Sometimes against them.

What is there to say, he will lose a lot of support for it, good politicians are hard to find.

Rand Paul Flips on Abortion Flop!

Quoted Text
Sen. Rand Paul said he's open to "thousands of exceptions" to a ban on abortion.
Paul has said he believes life begins at conception, but in an interview with CNN the Republican
emphasized he is also a physician who treats each case individually.
"What I would say is that there are thousands of exceptions," Paul told CNN host Wolf Blitzer in
response to a question about exceptions to a ban.
"You know, I'm a physician and every individual case is going to be different and everything's
going to be particular to that individual case and what's going on with that mother and the
medical circumstances of that mother."

Colbert on Rand Paul
Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) said to an audience that he is “saddened” to see President Barack Obama
using the Newtown families as “props.”

“Hey, Newtown parents,” stop making Rand Paul sad. He’s extremely sensitive…to his own feelings.”
Colbert admonished.

What Rand Paul is reminding is, said Colbert, is that:
“grieving families aren't the real victims. Gun owners are.”

Colbert has great rhetoric I must admit.  

The gun legislation they were trying to pass has nothing to do with the childrens graves they are standing on. But Colbert did do a good job getting people to refocus on the Sandy Hook straw man.

Box....irrelevant cartoon....yes, Newtown was emotional...but logic will prevail...the guy had issues and in America it was
ALWAYS about the punishment for the crime (that was proven) NEVER pre-crime...

are you looking to go back to the monarchy and pissing off/offending the 'king'.....

because this pre-crime sh!t is leading down the road to vote intimidation.....


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......
