PHOTOS: Rand Paul at Arizona State University

[Gage]

Yesterday I attended Rand Paul's first ever rally at Arizona State University, along with about 600-700 other students and community members. I was glad that Rand could finally do a big public event in AZ (I live here). He was introduced by potential McCain challenger State Senator Kelli Ward, who got the crowd fired up, and Rand delivered his usual rousing speech. I got photos I'd like to share with you all, you can find more HERE.













The crowd was very diverse, unfortunately it was finals week and a Friday, so the turnout I think could have been even better but either way it was an awesome event and opportunity for Rand to speak to a college audience as a Presidential candidate, which he has only done a few times so far. It reminded me of the giant rallies Ron had towards the end of his campaign.

You can find more than 50 photos from the rally here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/gagesk...57652097525020

What is with the Fascist theater ropes? For God's sake , Rand Why do you need 20 feet blocked off between you and your fans? Is that the Republican "free protest zone? Our boy is becoming a real "man of the People." If Rand had his wits about him, he would have stepped forward and taken them down himself. Missed opportunity.

So another George Soros troll can try to rush Rand and potentially get herself hurt and try and turn it into a smear on him like during his senate campaign in 2010? No thanks, bring on the Fascist theater ropes and security and let's keep things controlled when those cameras are rolling, Rand isn't running for ice cream truck driver.

Oh, and side note: I also attended a Marco Rubio rally also held at a university in Phoenix earlier in the week. The median age at Rubio's rally was around 65 would be my guess. The median age of Rand's rally at Arizona State University was probably closer to 25.

That's "Free Speech Zone" to you, mundane.
