" I was for Rand till the end, but if you are a hardcore introvert like that you shouldn't get in this game. It's a personal business."
Exactly. Which is why people shouldn't be waiting for 2020 either. More than likely he'll do one more term in the Senate and head back to medicine.
It sad because there's a lot of potential there but if you're uncomfortable around people, you cannot, should not be in politics.
He needs to take down his site then. He is still fundraising, which is wrong.
Two reasons why he may have quit at this juncture:
(1) the campaign is running on fumes
(2) Koch brothers and CoC nudged him out to clear field against Trump
Wih how hip being a rebel seems to be, he should tell everyone to vote for Hilary

Well this is not going to become the Ted Cruz or Donald Trump forum.
Or, Rand is personally very embarrassed, furious, or shaken to the core over turning out to be wrong over the "youth turn out" for him, as it turned out to be non-existent. It appears he may not have qualified for the NH debate, which also could have signaled the end to him about his prospects. He decided to cut losses now before more defeats reinforced the impression the liberty movement was over. One other factor is that there may have been overtures given to him by Trump or Cruz about being named for VP if he got out of the race.

'Murika. The bastion of democracy. Where the people get a choice between a $#@! sandwich on white or a $#@! sandwich on rye.

Rand still does not get it even with his suspension speech. He should have used that speech to promote values in this cycle to help him win his Senate seat.
The average voter does not give a $#@! that you cater to the youth and minority vote. I am not saying the issues he mentioned are not import but how does he expect to win his Senate seat by refusing to connect with the average voters is beyond me.
Damn, I thought he was going to see how long he could evolve the movement, rather than being all or nothing. He has a legit path to be one of the final four with a lot of states left. Better not drop out! Maybe the stress of being so incredibly busy is wearing on even a work horse like Rand?
Who knew cruz was going to fook the pauls over. Cruz seemed like an alright guy in 2012. Seemed to fooled everyone for a while.
Kinda messed up since the pauls did help cruz get his senate seat with endorsements.
I doubt cruz would even give out table scraps for rand if there was a deal made.
2020... dr paul, the eye doctor.
Like in 2012... just pandered the wrong group again. "You mean you arent giving us free $#@! AND you are making us work longer before retiring and getting social security?" Im sure thats how it went down and what went through the kids minds.
Other than that, its a marketing and lack of emotion. Rands 14.5% tax plan... was stupid as $#@!. Hermain cain had 999.. catchy and effective in 2012.
Sad Day.
Kinda Heartbroken. No one left on stage is committed to Liberty in a meaningful way. Gotta think.
Brawndo's got what plants crave. Its got electrolytes.
H. L. Mencken said it best:
“Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.”
"As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron."
Because Cruz ACTUALLY was against the interventions in the senate before he ran for president. The country will get Rubio, trump hillary or Bernie. I am not an apocalypse NOW voter. Hillary will start more wars than Cruz as will Rubio and trump may start the big one with the Asians, Bernie will probably start the same as Cruz being that he supports democratic wars.
In an voting index that gave Ron Paul 100% Rand gets 93% Cruz gets 89% that is where the rubber meets the road..
War; everything in the world wrong, evil and immoral combined into one and multiplied by millions.
I think it's great he stopped running. Had no chance & very limited momentum.
Time to be one of the the best Senators in Washington DC & really be a champion for peace in Syria.
I refuse to believe he's suspended! I can't take this. I think I'll just close my eyes and ignore politics completely until November. When I open my eyes, Paul better be the nominee.
I'm heartbroken. I will not be supporting any of the current candidates. Very sad day.
