Quote:Rand is pretty young. I don't want young, fresh, smooth or cool I want a candidate who is knowledgeable about everything on his plate.  The guy has vision, understands historically what we have done and how we have failed.  Everyone called him an isolationist because he didn't want to go around provoking nations.  The libertarian "sect" doesn't need a new face it needs more people to be educated towards the fact that big government in the form of both Democrats and Republicans has failed them.  I felt Rand Paul was the only candidate establishing that position which is the only position myself and many like me have at this point.


War Crazy, Ignorant, Socialist, Financially illiterate is what we have left and thats not even counting Hillary's many issues.  Its no wonder voter turnout is low.  I will vote for whoever Paul endorses because he is the only one I have any faith in.

 

Rand already had your vote - it's not your vote he needed to win over.  Rand came off as bitter, which turned off a lot of voters.  I stand by the notion that the libertarian sect needs a young, charismatic leader.  The closest thing it has had to young and charismatic was Ron Paul, and we all know he was not young, and had bouts of crankiness.  

 

Rand was one of my three that I had on my top tier.  He originally had my vote and then turned me off a little before he announced his bid.  He just wasn't "cool" enough to win over the Trump voters or Rubio voters.
