I have done a lot of soul searching in my support of RAND 2016 over the past decade. If you, like me, have been in the liberty/voluntarist/constitutionalist movement for any period of time, you've long known in your heart this time was coming.
We've all got our inner idealist "Kokesh", our personal libertarian hot button issues, and our ill-experience-with-the-state-slanted libertarian views. We each also have our pet conservative and liberal slants (even if we fail to admit them). Each, our desire to focus more or less on winning politics vs winning hearts and minds. There are times when I bite my tongue or scratch my forehead; get temperamental that Rand doesn't see and sell liberty just like I would.... but I see none of this as a good reason to look a gift horse in the mouth.
I'm all in favor of liberty in our lifetime and after much reflection, and I cannot help but see Rand Paul 2016 as our golden ticket. Rand has the just the right proportion of pragmatism and idealism, which our movement needs to carry the torch of liberty into the future and help blossom an idea who's time has clearly come.
This is my endorsement of
RAND PAUL FOR PRESIDENT 2016 and my rally cry to RPF to unite in support.
