McCain: Paul ‘Worst Possible Candidate,’ Cruz Would Be Better

Shortly after responding to Rand Paul calling him an Obama “lapdog,” Senator John McCain talked further about the swipe with Fox’s Neil Cavuto. And McCain really came out swinging, declaring that “Senator Paul is the worst possible candidate, of the 20 or so that are running, on the most important issue, which is national security.”

He said that Paul has been way more wrong about foreign policy and dismissed the suggestion that his call for arming the Syrian rebels would have ended up aiding terrorist groups.

Cavuto asked McCain if he really thinks Paul is the worst, and McCain affirmed that yes, he does. And while he would support the Republican nominee no matter what, he said he hopes “good sense would prevail here.”

McCain even went so far to say that Ted Cruz, a candidate he doesn’t particularly see eye-to-eye on, would do a better job than Paul.

Ted Cruz is the bad guy faux good guy. His wife, Heidi, is his giveaway. She is a Managing Director for Goldman Sachs and on the Council of Foreign Relations. AKA she is a NWO Stooge, which puts the Canadian Presidential Candidate on the same level. Fuck Ted Cruz.

Nothing will ever get the MSM, or those who count the votes, on Rand's side. He's not going to out-bribe the most prolific bribers in history. It may take a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Athens_%281946%29 at every Republican primary jurisdiction to ensure all his votes are counted, considering the aggressive violence directed at liberty-oriented Republicans at events.

The only way is for the public voice to rise up with a roar and decide to make a change from the left-right paradigm. It is old and broken because it only serves those who put the puppets in power.

Tyrants shrug, ensure the worst possible evil is elected irregardless.

Then civil war

We recrossed the grievances line of the American Revolution decades ago. Tyranny marches on. Seems like nothing short of democide by government in the US will ever make people think a defensive civil war is justified. Except by that time, "gun control" will have succeeded at its final solution and nobody will be able to resist at arms, being dumped into mass graves and ovens. The NRA is effectively powerless, all talk no meaningful action lobbying aside.

Gun control will never work. The proponents of it are fucked in the head. Every case of these fucktards going on shooting sprees was in states with some form of gun control. I know that if I was in an area that some looney tune was blasting, I would want to be armed. By the time the cops arrive too many are already dead. You know the old saying:

"When you need a cop in a few seconds just wait a few minutes."

NRA has had some significant victories. They are picking off states one at a time that require permits. They have issued a warning that any state or municipal government that places restrictions on gun rights will be taken to court. They have yet to lose.

One of my favorite states is making pot legal and making concealed carry without a permit legal. They heeded the warning.

Democide is a substantial threat to the populace. Those FEMA camps were not built for fun.

The Continuance of Government Legislation is downright scary.

Yep, I'm aware of all of this but I do think Cruz is the best besides Rand, tho I do think he's the foil to Rand's chances in some instances. Him getting a $31 mill in PAC funding tells me that. I hope you all rally w/ me to support Rand and the best thing that natives can do is to donate to his campaign.

[Video] The truth about Rand Paul

Yall gotta check out this KY black pastor who debuted during Rand's announcement speech in the intro. You can't not enjoy it, it's so good. This is the promo video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=25&v=M-SJ4fQwOMI

And this is the pastor's speech on opening day. Mind you, he was a democrat w/ a decent following prior to going indy and getting on the Randtrain. Here's his intro speech prior to Rand taking the stage on the announcement day.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfZBHf-PbwQ

If you watch either you'll see how great this preacher can be for Rand in KY and the networking effect across the country and/or this guy is a powerful speaker and you can't help to want him on your side. Smiley I'm not super religious but this vid will move you on some level.

EXCLUSIVE — RAND PAUL: OBAMA WHITE HOUSE, CONGRESS SHOULD BOTH CONSIDER INVESTIGATING HILLARY

Paul, who was previously briefed on the findings of the forthcoming Peter Schweizer book Clinton Cash, said:

This really has been the particular case of the Clinton Cash that bothers me the most and that should bother voters the most. We now have a uranium company that is control of 20 percent of the uranium mining in North America—that’s owned by the Russians. This deal had to be approved by Hillary Clinton and it turns out that the stockholders in that company gave $145 million to Hillary Clinton’s foundation. I can’t imagine how she could be a part of the decision-making process while she received so much money in her foundation—$145 million.

Rand: Our Founding Fathers Would Be Mortified By NSA

WASHINGTON (CBSDC/AP) — Republican Sen. Rand Paul lashed out against the federal government’s sweeping surveillance programs on Wednesday, staking an aggressive position on an issue already dividing the Republican presidential field. The libertarian-leaning Kentucky Republican, who launched a White House bid earlier in the month, noted that members of his own party support programs that allow the National Security Agency to collect the phone records of millions of Americans. “Our Founding Fathers would be mortified,” Paul said during an awards ceremony hosted by the Constitution Project, a Washington think tank.

[Love this next part]

The federal government’s surveillance programs could play prominently in the GOP presidential primary contest, which is heating up just as Congress debates surveillance programs initiated by President George W.Bush’s administration and continued under President Barack Obama. In a Tuesday radio interview, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, who is expected to run for the GOP nomination, praised the Obama administration’s use of “big metadata programs” that began under Bush’s older brother.

“There has been a continuation of a very important service,” Bush said. “The first obligation, I think, of our national government is to keep us safe. And the technologies that now can be applied to make that so, while protecting civil liberties, are there.”

Rand Paul, Superhero

Rand Paul almost has the superhero thing down. There’s his unlikely rise as a Tea Party champion. The family legacy pushing him to fight for free markets. Some shadowy questions lingering over his origin story. And crucially, the overarching quest for glory: On April 7, he announced his campaign for the White House. All he needs is some theme music, and maybe some larger guiding heroism.

The Bluewater books are not partisan, but that doesn’t mean they pull their punches. The forthcoming book on Jeb Bush, for example, features the candidate nearly crushed under giant stone letters that spell out his family name. The Rand Paul comic reveals him as perhaps the edgiest character in the race for 2016, a figure who seems almost like a hero from an alt-universe—simply by showing him as he is.

Hardball : Chris Matthews - Rand Paul's "war" over war

Sen. Rand Paul is going after the war hawks in his own party, including John McCain and Lindsey Graham. Paul is making a bet that everyday Republican voters are as sick and tired of war as the everyday Democrats.

Rand Paul’s Internet Army Welcome to the front lines of the battle for your Facebook news feed

Vincent Harris wants details, and he’s not getting them. The 26-year-old political consultant is quizzing two Facebook guys who’ve showed up at the Austin headquarters of his media firm, and all he’s getting back is a pat lecture about the value of social networking for online campaigns.

Harris and the dozen staffers gathered in his company’s conference room don’t exactly need to be convinced: This is what they do. And by the time the 2016 presidential campaign is over, these twentysomethings expect to be paid millions of dollars for doing it well. They already spend all day everyday on the digital front lines, producing content—videos, graphics, games—tailored specifically for Facebook, tallying likes and clicks, dissecting what caught fire and what fell flat. They already get why Facebook matters. What they want to know is how to crack the code.

“Is 23 seconds the ideal video length?” Harris asks, interrupting the well-rehearsed presentation. The most successful Facebook videos often clock in at 15 to 30 seconds, and Harris read a study suggesting 23 seconds might be the sweet spot. The answer from the Facebook rep veers toward the philosophical, and Harris tunes out after a few seconds, tapping at his iPhone instead. He gets a message.


“The Meerkat guy is here,” Harris announces abruptly, rising from his seat. The Facebook pair exchange a look.

The Meerkat Guy, whose name is Ryan Cooley, has popped in to make the case that the new, Twitter-based video-streaming application could be useful to digital politics shops like Harris Media, which has amassed a marquee roster of conservative clients, from Sarah Palin to Rand Paul, and established itself as the buzziest GOP firm of the cycle. Cooley is wearing a bright yellow T-shirt with a cartoon of the friendly-looking African mongoose. Harris leads him into his office, closes the door, and minutes later, the two are furiously meerkatting—a verb that did not exist a few weeks prior and, given Twitter’s recent purchase of Meerkat competitor Periscope, one that may rapidly fade from the vernacular.

For the moment, at least, the Meerkat Guy is the purveyor of cutting-edge coolness, and Harris doesn’t hide his excitement over the clever app. He tells the Meerkat Guy that he wants his client Rand Paul to be the first presidential contender to use it; Harris is so bullish on the Kentucky senator that, last November, he ditched Senator Ted Cruz, the client who put him on the map, to work for the rival campaign—and he knows exactly how to help win over Paul, who also attended Baylor University, to an untested new tool: “Can you bring him a shirt? That would help,” Harris says. “Rand loves shirts.”

Rand Paul Snapchats Poker Game With Instagram Playboy Dan Bilzerian
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7dZDHhVrNY
Senator Rand Paul sent out a Snapchat Friday morning of him “taking lessons” from Instagram playboy Dan Bilzerian.

The video, captioned “Lessons from Dan Bilzerian,” showed the two holding money and playing what appears to be liar’s poker, where hands are dictated by the serial numbers on the bills. They were using hundred dollar bills.

The photo sharing app lets users post photos and videos, which disappear within 24 hours. Paul’s username, “senatorrandpaul,” is public.

Bilzerian is a bearded trust fund baby who has eight million followers on Instagram, mainly because of his plethora of photos of scantily clad women, fast cars and lots of guns.

Tom Cotton preparing for battle against Rand Paul and GOP libertarian wing over Patriot Act

Sen. Tom Cotton is preparing for battle against Sen. Rand Paul and the GOP’s libertarian wing over the USA Patriot Act and the power of government to conduct spying operations domestically and abroad.

The 37-year-old Iraq and Afghanistan veteran, who vaulted to the Senate this year after a single term in the House, is maneuvering to build support for extending existing surveillance authority for the U.S. government — without the additional safeguards civil libertarians want.

The Arkansas senator, who caused an international firestorm last month with his controversial letter to Iranian leaders, has spent many recent Fridays in Washington at FBI and National Security Agency headquarters, meeting with senior intelligence officials and administration lawyers to build his case for a clean extension of three expiring provisions of the Patriot Act. With the support of GOP leaders, he’s serving as an emissary on the issue to GOP freshmen who are weighing whether to extend the controversial law. And he is seeking to sell his views on surveillance to Republicans from libertarian-minded states through classified briefings conducted by senior intelligence officials.

The emergence of Cotton, an unbending hawk celebrated by neoconservatives as a next-generation party leader on national defense, shows how intent Republican leaders are to prevail over the Paul wing of the GOP. Libertarian-leaning Republicans want to scale back — if not repeal — the Patriot Act before key provisions are set to expire May 31.

In an interview, Cotton warned that he’s determined not to allow views like Paul’s to take hold in today’s Republican party.

...

http://www.politico.com/story/2015/04/tom-cotton-prepares-for-patriot-act-battle-117306.html

Watch out for this Cotton creep, he's Rubio and McCain on steroids and is a super war hawk and surveillance state freak. The worst kind of republican to have elected to the Senate.

Rand Paul opposes online gambling restrictions – but not without heavy pushback

Sen. Paul’s stance has put him in the good graces of online poker advocates for his position and even Legaluspokersites.com has posted many supportive comments:

“Looks like online poker players have a candidate they can support for president.”

“I like him, but he would be my last choice anyway….Ted Cruz is a poker maestro.”

“He just got my vote. lololol”

“Awesome. He is against RAWA and he is against gun control. Guess I’m voting for Rand Paul.”

“As someone who really wants poker back, this might take my vote.”

Unfortunately for Paul, conservative mega-donor, Sheldon Adelson, doesn’t embrace the senator’s hands off approach on this issue. Adelson, who is also a Las Vegas casino magnate, has vowed to “spend whatever it takes” to stop online gambling from becoming a widely legalized practice, citing “moral standards” for his stance.

How one can moralize against online gambling while simultaneously holding the position of CEO to the Las Vegas Sands Corporation is questionable.

Adelson, with his massive financial resources, has pushed efforts to pass the Restoration of America’s Wire Act (RAWA), which was reintroduced in February by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) for the second time. The bill would effectively strengthen the language of the original Wire Act, passed in 1961, in order to ban the practice of online gambling altogether.

I hope that all lower key poker players that want online poker to take hold will do their thing and back Rand over this single issue voter situation. I haven't bellied up to a table to gamble in years (despite me running on this turf) but hopefully this will bring waves of those that make lucrative loot off of poker to Rand's corner. No other option at this point.

‘What I Saw Disgusted Me’: Black Rand Paul Supporter Saw This Comment About Her & Had to Speak Out

“Last night a Facebook notification showed up on my screen. A friend had posted a picture to my wall. What I saw disgusted me.”

That’s how Zuri Davis, 19, describes the moment she saw a Facebook post targeting her for being a black, female supporter of Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.).

“A FEMALE AFRICAN AMERICAN who is standing with Rand,” the post said. “She must not realize the platform. The fact he’s pretty much regarded as racist, sexist, a**hole along with the rest of his party.”

“Honey, honey, honey,” it added.
