So even if the mother is young and will likely die in childbirth, Rand doesn't think there should be an abortion.



And he wants to strip the Department of Education. How nice.


I'll admit that he has fewer crazy points than his dad, but I wouldn't vote for him on the abortion issue alone. Anyone who says a raped 14 year old should be forced to risk her life carrying to term is a sociopath and not someone I want in office.

So because he is a Republican he is bad, got it. I'll admit, I don't support his position on abortion however he (unlike others) believes it should be left up to the states. Besides, we all know damn well before it becomes an issue they change their tune. Look at Romney, Obama, etc.

Rand is not Ron, he is a politician and is most definitely playing the game unlike his father.

The Dept of Education is a fucking joke proven by a continual degrade of our world rankings linked directly to its implementation. It is stunning how we were on top of the world all that time and the moment that monstrosity is established our children's education went down the proverbial shitter.

Sorry but that is something that always gets my panties in a bunch. People can say Ron Paul fucks small children all day long or that our military is filled with murderers and rapists and I wouldn't want care.

I believe our children should get the best education in the world and right now, as the richest most powerful nation in human history we are in the mid twenties early thirties in world math and science.

Well at least we know insanity is still alive and well over there at CPAC.
As if we would have ever questioned that in the first place....

I stand with Rand, and almost certainly oppose any GOP that he does not lead and command.
