politics is exiting ain't it?
Why is your hair so curly and greasy?
You're way over-dramatizing our positions. We have totally rational and logical reasons to not like him. He violates MAJOR principles of libertarianism. Excuse us for thinking it's okay to be for abortion or against it and simultaneously be libertarian (left libertarian vs right libertarian), but it's NEVER okay to vote for acts of war in violation of your oath of office and the Constitution. It's not emotional...the support for him is based on emotion, clearly.
I think he's doing it specifically to address the backlash he's been getting. His office answered the request rather quickly.
Some of the questions people are posting are about things in the Kokesh and AJ videos. I doubt there will be much more than the standard politician response to these, if they even try to ask at all.
Some are more focused on the 30-minute meeting he said he had with Mitt. These are probably what they will focus on.
He's not going to say $hit about that meeting other than it was pleasant and he agreed and disagreed with Romney on some points. Nothing we've already not heard. If Rand expected anything different then what he's received then his political strategists are significantly under informed.
Another pointless question: ''Senator Paul, do you like dogs?''
Will you support Gurley L Martin for Senate in 2014?
Do you not like having a voice in the Senate who actually defends your liberties? Why would you not want a President like Rand who would actually be a voice for freedom (not a perfect one of course).
Some of you act like spoiled children. Individuals in modern American government who actually try to defend a little bit of your freedom are not very plentiful, and haven't been for a while.
crickets .... chirp chirp. chirp chirp.
I think Rand will end up with MANY more "mainstream" Republican supporters by backing Romney than what he loses from the hard lined Libertarians. There is a reason he calls himself a constitutional (or fiscal) conservative rather than a Libertarian Conservative.
So when does this event happen?
