Good showing by Rand on another O'Reilly show w/ a sub host that likes him. Rand really gets at Trump so this is a must watch. The post a few posts back about Rand's standing in Iowa is crap because his dad's campaign allegedly paid a state senator for support and was orchestrated by his nephew whom many in the Paul camp has long been wanting the Paul's to get rid of.

Rand Paul op-ed: Don't Fall For A Fake Conservative

I ran for office because I was tired of being misled by Republicans who promised conservative government and gave us bank bailouts and more debt. The Wall Street bankers got richer and the American taxpayer got poorer.

The Tea Party erupted over dissatisfaction with false conservatives. It amazes me that anyone in the Tea Party movement could possibly consider Clinton/Reid/Pelosi supporter Donald Trump for President.

I honestly have no idea what Mr. Trump’s real philosophy is. He was liberal before he was conservative, and has openly professed for decades that his views are those of a Democrat.

In 1990, he said if he ever ran for office, he’d do better as a Democrat. He became an independent briefly in 1999 before he switched back to registering as a Democrat. In 2004, he identified more of his beliefs as those of a Democrat, especially on economic policy, stating on CNN that“it just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats than the Republicans.” He only registered as a Republican in 2009 before dropping the party again in 2011, only to re-register in 2012.

This is a guy who said in 1999 that he was a strong supporter of the United Nations. He was for partial birth abortion before he was against it. He lavished praise on the bank bailouts. He was for Obamacare before he was against it and has said he’s “liberal on health care.”

In the debate, I reminded Trump that conservatives in the GOP have spent decades opposing a single-payer system like the socialized medicine of Canada and England. He responded that I hadn’t heard his answer. The problem is, I had heard his answer and, like many of his answers, it made absolutely no sense. What I heard was that he was once for a single-payer system—today, he’s against Obamacare but still kind of likes the concept of single-payer and isn’t sure it works.

No conservative in America supports a single-payer government-run healthcare system, and yet around 25 percent of Republicans seem to favor Trump. How can this be possible? How can a quarter of the GOP support a guy who was a Republican, then an Independent, then a Democrat, and then a Republican again?

[Video] Rand Paul on Fox News Sunday w/ Chris Wallace 8/9/15

~11mins

Mind you, this is the biggest Sunday political talk show that many republican primary voters turn in to view. They owed him this after the pathetic timing they gave him in the debate.

Rand Paul: Trump a 'fake conservative'

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) in an interview Sunday called Donald Trump, who refused to rule out a third-party run during the first GOP debate, a “fake conservative."

Paul said on "Fox News Sunday" that Trump has "been for all these liberal policies and now because he can stand up and say vulgar things and he’s a truth teller. Well the truth is, what is he for?"

“I don’t think we should reward vulgarity and I don’t think vulgarity equates to insight,” Paul added. “Because you can shout and call people names and call someone 'stupid; or call someone 'fat' is that really what we’re going to make the decision on for who’s going to be our nominee?”

“I have no idea what his real philosophy is other than that he is for promoting himself,” Paul said.

This is just another ploy by Kimmie boy to play the historical card and rally the people around the regime/motherland. Haven't heard much out of them lately so they obviously decided to try to take peoples' minds off the shitty food situation.

No. It's the bitlicence. It's too costly for lots of crypto businesses like exchanges to apply for it so instead they're just barring New York residents from using their services.

I'd advise those that live in NY or Cali to move away from these oppressive states and New Hampshire is a decent place to live for now or the time being. Then you can make your stance about leaving the country. Good thing thing that the US gov doesn't calll the shots everywhere.

That's totally the case, stop messing around w/ 5 or 600$ as is so impossible at this point.  Wallflowers will sell too early and miss out on the next run and will rue the day they folded w/ two pairs on a five stud hand. If you can't comprehend the thousands for bitcoin as the next runup point then just sell now and be out of the consolidation picture once and for all.

Rand Paul gets the fight that he’s wanted for a year

CLEVELAND -- No Republican presidential candidate had a rougher week than Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) It started with a doomed vote to defund Planned Parenthood, which the senator had promoted for weeks, as an example of his ability to get things done. It continued with indictments coming down on the leaders of his super PAC -- something Paul argued was "suspiciously" timed, possibly to hurt his campaign. Paul even got slammed with an attack ad, from former UN Ambassador John Bolton's Foundation for American Security and Freedom.


Paul used the first moments of this debate to change this story, and only gained energy from there. After Donald Trump gave a meandering, tautological answer to a question about whether he might run as an independent, Paul jumped the debate queue and attacked him.

"This is what's wrong!" Paul interjected. "He buys and sells politicians of all stripes! He's already hedging his bet on the Clintons, OK? So if he doesn't run as a Republican, maybe he supports Clinton, or maybe he runs as an independent, but I'd say that he's already hedging his bets because he's used to buying politicians."

Rand Paul’s Eye-Roll Marked the End of the 9/11 Era

...

Senator Rand Paul, at that moment engaged with Christie on a debate about mass surveillance, then gave what we’ll unilaterally dub as the most monumental eyeroll in presidential debate history.

Paul’s smirking get-a-load-of-this-guy dismissal of Christie’s ghoulish grandstanding is a nice final line for an important political chapter—-it’s the moment we knew for sure September 11 lost its currency in Republican politics. Paul wasn’t immediately booed, nor shredded by the moderators, nor condemned as a terrorist sympathizer or worse, as certainly would have been the case during the Bush years. In fact, in the Drudge Report’s insta-reaction online poll, Paul finished fifth and Christie was dead last.

Rand Paul Got the Least Talk Time of Any Debate Candidate

Which candidate was most shafted by the structure of the Fox News Republican presidential debate on Thursday night? That would be Sen. Rand Paul, who was given vastly less talking time than the rest of the candidates.

Paul received just under 5 minutes of talking time, the least of any of the 10 participants in the debate. According to NPR’s Domenico Montanaro, the time totals were as follows:

1 Trump 10:30

2 Bush 8:33

3 Huck 6:32

4 Carsn/Crz 6:28

6 Kasch 6:25

7 Rubio 6:22

8 Chrste 6:03

9 Walkr 5:43

10 Paul 4:51

I thought Paul represented his libertarian views well during his short, testy argument with Chris Christie about NSA snooping. But it must be difficult for the libertarian-leaning senator to fully explain why his dissenting opinions are more intelligent, broadly popular, and in keeping with the Constitution than his opponents realize when he is only given a meager four minutes to make his case. There isn’t much difference—policy-wise, at least—between Huckabee, Carson, Cruz, Rubio, and Walker; why give them all significantly more screen-time than Paul?

Glenn Beck praises Rand Paul's debate performance

Beck said he was impressed by Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul’s performance, saying he did “really, really well” and stuck to his principles on the issues.

“Rand Paul was in the winner section,” Beck said. “Now a lot of people say that he was perceived as angry. I thought he was fact-based. He has a middle-range voice that when he raises his voice, it’s kind of grating. That’s why when he was shouting, it didn’t go over well with some.”

“But I thought he did really, really well last night. And I was pleased with his performance,” Beck concluded, specifically referencing his debate with New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie about domestic surveillance programs.

[Video] Rand Paul vs. Chris Christie on the 4th amendment during last nights debate
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gEW6LRvb4k
Rand ate his dinner for him and schooled him on the 4th plus got in a jab at the end.

Trump is all talk and very weak on policy talk other than saying the Mexican government is sending their criminals over here which I'm not sure is the case. Most of the recent immigrant waves have been those from El Salvador and Guatemala or similar areas. The guy is for a single payer health system, wants to put Snowden to death and has long bought off politicians as in giving money to Hillary, Bush, Biden you name it. Americans are pissed about the lawlessness of Obama and apparently like the tough talking by Trump but my thoughts are he is just setting himself up for a third party run which is one of the main avenues for a Hillary win cause she surely won't win it as things since her base is drying up via her hawkishness and corruption.

Worried About Rand Paul Falling in the Polls? Don't Be.
Numbers this far out mean little under the best of circumstances. And these are not the best of circumstances.

Is Rand Paul's campaign in the midst of a collapse? Everyone from Nate Silver to Politico to the thinkers at Salon has suggested as much. It's fast becoming conventional wisdom that the Kentucky senator is dead in the water.

That's absurd on many levels, as my colleague Brian Doherty outlined beautifully last week. After all, John McCain's campaign struggled mightily in the money game and underwent a pretty serious reorganization during the '08 primary cycle. It didn't stop him from snagging the Republican nomination.

But what to make of the polling? There's no denying that Paul's standing has slipped. His RealClearPolitics average has gone from 17 percent in 2013 to less than 6 percent today. If you're a fan of Rand, should you be concerned?

Hardly.
