HA! That was awesome! Thanks and +rep.
I don't know if I'd agree with everything in there, but it was well thought out. (Rand would win IA, OH, and PA... just sayin')
"And now that the legislators and do-gooders have so futilely inflicted so many systems upon society, may they finally end where they should have begun: May they reject all systems, and try liberty; for liberty is an acknowledgment of faith in God and His works." - Bastiat

The author forgot to mention that this would be the first time a Republican has won the Presidency without Ohio.
Yeah, I think Rand would take Ohio - it's Florida I'd be worried about.Originally Posted by PaleoPaul

Aside from the fact that by 2020, we probably won't even be called the United States anymore... we will have 26 Trillion in debt by then, interest on that debt will eat most of what's left of the GDP, and the great depression will look like the roaring 20's by comparison...

Ohio is full of welfare recipients (Cleveland for example) and union thugs. NOT exactly Rand territory.
Haha...that was really cool.
There's a long enough border with Kentucky! I think he'll get it done.

No, northern Ohio is a hopeless bastion of unionism. Wish it could be true but I live in an area of union thuggery.
NOTE: The following is a fictional news story set in the year 2020, in a world in which Rand Paul has won the 2016 presidential election and is preparing to seek re-election. The following is not necessarily intended as a serious prediction of the events that may unfold, but merely a hypothetical scenario:
A LOOK BACK ON THE LAST DECADE
The 2016 presidential election seems to many Americans to be a generation ago. By 2016, the economy had plunged into paralyzing stagnation after an unprecedented “triple dip” recession in the financial crisis that had begun in 2007. Consumer confidence had fallen to an all-time low, even as spiraling inflation had driven stock prices and the Dow Jones Industrial Average up to soaring highs that most economists acknowledged were artificial.
President Obama’s approval rating had dropped into the low 30s after his decision to put 20,000 American combat troops on the ground in Syria to assist the post-Assad transitional government, which in February 2014 led to a coordinated suicide bombing attack on multiple American barracks, resulting in one of the largest single losses of American troops since the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars.
