In the run for the White House in 2016, if it was Rand verse Clinton, I'd vote for neither one of them. When Clinton made the remark in front of the committee to investigate Benghazi "What does it matter at this point" showed me her character. One thing we don't need is another dismissive President.

But that's not a fact. It's your opinion. Actually it's not even opinion, it's a prediction, which means it's a guess.

As I've posted so many times before, a prediction does not constitute an argument. This should be considered as a formal logical fallacy, but AFAIK it has not yet been named, so I'm claiming it as wutitiz's fallacy: "A prediction does not constitute an argument."

I'd vote for Paul, but Hillary would almost certainly win.

Rand Paul seems more connected to most Americans beliefs... smaller government, against pointless wars, anti-NSA. however Hillary Clinton is a woman, and i know a lot of people are going to vote for her because she is a woman and they want the country to seem less "sexist".

By this logic, Sarah Palin should have been our VP for over five years now.

This is not a contest. Rand Paul always looks like he's hung over and a bit deranged. He LOOKS like what he is. What he represents is repulsive to the American consciousness, and has been so since the days when lunatics decided to bring Slavery to this country. The segment of this country that he's connected to have been dead since those horrific days of supreme ignorance.

"Small government" only works to the benefit of those in power, those who want to make the rich richer without scrutiny, those who want to discriminate without scrutiny, those who want maximize profits by any means, and those who want to displace millions of qualified Americans with foreign labor. Small government favors bigotry. This is NOT what most Americans want.

George Bush was also against "pointless wars" until he started two. He was such a LIAR, and shares the same ideology with Paul, the plagiarist. These people cannot be believed. They will say anything to sucker in votes and support. No.

NSA is not bad just because President Obama is President. I used to work there and the work they do is indeed vital to the national security of this country. Most people in this country don't care for the Conservative ideology that Paul represents, one which throws such vital organizations they typically support under the bus because the President is a Democrat.

Thumbs down on Paul, a regressive version of Bush. He's yet another repulsive figure like his father, a representative of a bigoted ideology. Hillary easily wins simply because what she represents, her ideology, is far superior and connected to what this society has become. Get serious.

This and^as my thread on toxic coal slurry references, does Paul support Massey Energy slurry dumping in public water supply. BECAUSE IT IS STILL HAPPENING.

Of course CEO Massey had his own water pipeline installed/ shows you what the 1% think about their residents. They don't give a tinker's damn.

.....really what you think is irrelevant.

Math is math. What states are the GOP wrestling back from the Democrats with Hilary Clinton on the ticket?

Which ones?!?!

(The GOP's path to victory requires every battleground state, or to infiltrate the blue wall).

No, it doesn't. But I still don't think Senator Paul would likely beat Hillary.
