Will: Rand Best Positioned to Attack WH ‘Caesarism’
Columnist George Will argued Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) is “the candidate most apt to push back against the Caesarism that’s enveloped the presidency” on Tuesday’s “Special Report” on the Fox News Channel.


“His strengths are, among other things, that he has broadened the range of the discussable on foreign policy within the Republican Party, and that’s healthy. Second, on some issues, particularly, with regard to the criminal justice system, he’s the only voice calling conservatives to extend their suspicion of the state, mandatory minimum sentences, overcriminalization, mass incarceration, the human cost of the drug war, and all the rest. Third, he’s the candidate most apt to push back against the Caesarism that’s enveloped the presidency under Barack Obama. And occasionally, he’s quite good on judges, he varies on this somewhat, but says, occasionally that judges, far from being too active, are not active enough in resisting encroachments on our liberty by the legislative branches” Will stated.

George Will usually has the right ideas. His political instincts are sometimes a little bit lacking but his heart's in the right place

I witnessed his comments and was kinda pleased yet surprised with them at the same time. I've seen him place his presidential bets on the same show in weeks past and he always went high on Bush and Rubio but nothing on Paul which is odd now considering that he does understand Rand's strengths. Of course, CK is always there to be the trusted neocon Iran talking pointer and thus attempting to misrepresent Rand's position to what they want it to be, rather than what it is. Let's not fool each other, CK and his ilk know that Rand's tough talking on Iran is too tough for their liking at this point.;)
