Former Texas Rep. Ron Paul says his son, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul (R), “probably will” run for president in 2016.
Paul conceded that the senator is “gonna make up his own mind,” but bluntly said what everyone else has been thinking about the tea party darling’s political aspiriations . “I think he probably will. I mean, he’s been on TV hinting that he very well might,” Paul said on CNN. “I kiddingly say that advice I give him is he better be very careful. He’s doing well, he might get elected, and that’s a great burden and a major responsibility,” Paul said. “But I think he’s handling himself quite well.” Rand Paul has been hinting at his intentions to run for weeks.

We don't need another Senator running for president. We need someone with actual governing experience not law making experience.

I can't see a candidate I'd prefer more than Rand at this point.
|
|
|
Rand is the only Republican I can see myself voting for in 2016.
The Washington Post commies will destroy him because he discussed the plot of "Gattaca" in a speech. |
|
great.
rise of the neo paul bots. is every word of rand's scripture, like daddy's? how much for the deluxe DVD version of loose change? |
|
I'll vote for Rand Paul before I'd vote for another establishment RINO. And under no circumstance will I vote for fat bastard. YMMV

View Quote While I think you're right, we don't have the luxury of being too picky about our candidates. Rand Paul is a solid choice for president that the vast majority of us can agree on and is the least likely to screw us over on the important issues. |

I like him and would probably vote for him. Has anyone ever watched him debate a political opponent?

View Quote This ^ ^ ^ right there is why Rand Paul is an excellent candidate for us. 2monkey is a socialist/communist/Moby. If he doesn't like Rand Paul, then you know he is the perfect candidate. Rand is articulate, accomplished, familiar with and can navigate through today's politics. If the Left like 2monkey attack Rand then you know that he can beat anyone the Dumbcrats can throw at us. |

I will never vote Republican again because they are nothing more than Democrat Light and being the lesser of two evils is simply not enough to get my vote.
If there are any exceptions to that rule it will be either Rand Paul or Ted Cruz but it remains to be seen how much they are willing to compromise on their Conservative principles. We will see as time goes on. |

I was never a huge fan of Ron Paul, but I often defended him when people were bashing him. The whole lesser evil schtik applies to libertarians as well, people defend the guy that they feel best represents their views or who would be the best of the available options. Rand is a much better candidate. His social conservatism is going to be a liability, but I don't think anyone with broader appeal outside the conservative base can bring the base along, much less win the GOP nomination. |

Does anyone think Rand can pull the nose up on the country? I can hope, but logic tells me a politician is just a politician. In my mind the slow slide into 3rd world status will be nearly impossible to stop.

He'd be as good as anyone.
I mean look....Ron Paul is freaking fruit loops.....BUT.......still loads better than our current POTUS, and also you gotta look, he would have to fight Democrats and established Republicans anyway.....his looniest stuff wouldn't standa chance anyway. |

yup. he certainly is not my ideal candidate, but he's by far the best of the current crop. count on the gop to fuck him over and yet again snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. |

Our likely choices will be:
Christie JEB Bush Rand Cruz and I though I read an article about Nikki Hailey (SC Gov) was thinking about running. Im not voting for Christie or JEB. Ill waste my vote on the Constitution Party's candidate. I will not vote for the libertarian candidate either because of the stunt they pulled in VA's gov race. That really soured me on the L party. |

Rand Paul is currently the only possible candidate I would vote for. I'll send him $500 if he gets past the primaries.

He is the only R that I would vote for. I may even have to switch back in the state primary to vote for him.

A Conservative President and a Progressive Congress = Progressive government.
Unless we get rid of most of those turkeys in Congress the most a Conservative President is going to do is slightly reduce the growth of the Federal government. |

that fat shit Christie is going to use his time in the spotlight after Hurricane Sandy to his advantage.
if he wins the nomination, half the site would spewing "he's not after our guns", "we can trust him" and "he's better than a Democrat". sadly the third statement has a little bit of truth to it. |

I suspect he could pull in women and Independents better than anyone else currently viable. Way too early to get behind one man now. I want to watch them fight it out some.

I bet by 2015 he will have lost a lot of weight and he will be going around promoting his book about how he implemented conservative policies to restrain his diet or some phony BS like that. |
