re: #132 cliffster

You asked how Rand Paul ever got taken seriously, and I said the reason is because the government is driving our economy into the ground and Paul is saying, “hey, let’s stop driving the economy into the ground”. No matter how much you dislike him, that is a message that is going to resonate very strongly with people.

yeah, you say that…but even aside from this civil rights stuff (and that is a HUGE aside), the first solutions out of his mouth include the words “gold standard”.

that’s when my eyes glaze over…why do they think this guy has more economic cred than Karl Marx? i can’t figure it out…
