5 Reasons Liberals Tired of War Should Vote for Rand Paul Over Hillary Clinton.

If you've read my over 70 Huffington Post pieces or my writing in other publications, seen my debate on immigration reform and my HuffPost Live discussion with Marc Lamont Hill about Ferguson, listened to my appearance on America's first LGBT sports radio show, or read my two novels, and still believe that I'm not a true liberal, then great. I'm an American, not a vapid label that fits into anyone's political paradigm. I don't live in the liberal equivalent of the nation called Reagan. This fairy tale country is unlike our current "War Machine" described in The New Yorker, where (because of ISIS beheadings) "Even women, the bedrock of the Democratic Party, appeared to be swinging toward the G.O.P." on foreign policy and terrorism. As Ralph Nader recently stated when explaining why he'd sooner vote for Rand Paul than Hillary Clinton, "Who's liberal and who's conservative anymore?"
Furthermore, I've already been accused of having an "agenda" in writing my last piece on Rand Paul. I must confess, this true. I'm National Chairman of the "Liberals For Certain Libertarian Values I Admire Yet Will Not Vote for Paul If He Panders to GOP Hawks or Racists Before 2016" Committee. If you find this organization objectionable, then please write to P. O. Box 1101 "I Do Not Give a G-------n What Anyone Thinks of Me" Road, CA.
I'm always up for a spirited, respectful debate, but no longer with Bizzaro World Rush Limbaughs who'd willingly cannibalize their fellow liberals while crying, "You'd vote for Rand Paul just because of war?" I've heard this from many people and I just don't know what to make of such a viewpoint. Uh, yeah, perpetual war is the biggest issue facing this country and correlates directly to the powers of the president.
