Paul's "Anti-Washington Campaign"

Click here for the best candidate

As most of us know, Rand Paul has announced his bid for the presidency. In his announcement, Paul called Washington broken and stated many libertarian (good) ideas such as lesser prison sentences for non-violent criminals, congressional term limits, limiting government surveillance, ending most foreign aid, emphasizing individual liberty, closing Guantanamo Bay, and ending the Federal Reserve. But he also wants to increase military spending, which I view as stupid. The language of the BBC article surprises me too, as it contains a lot of negative language. This bad language, which is probably found in American media too, combined with John McCain saying Paul would be a "bad candidate" means he's probably not going to get elected. Oh well.....:(

Personally I like this candidate the best because he is the most libertarian and holds many of the same views and his libertarian father, Ron Paul. But because of his political views, he will most likely be opposed by both Democrats and Republicans.

  1. The lesser of the evils, as long as we don't elect a idiot or a warmonger then we should be fine.
