Great read. There's nobody thinking about running for Prez that can offer that thoughtful of a solution to the present health care market. This man is top shelf all the way around.

The guys a slimeball who back stabbed his own dad last time around. You do remember that right? He failed to support his old man against the others and instead went with a mainstream candidate.

Not that any of it matters. As someone pointed out earlier the whole thing is a farce to give people the illusion of freedom and choice.The only person who could have made a difference (and actually did somewhat) was Ron Paul; that is someone whos really top shelf all the way around.

His dad didn't want to be president and merely ran again because libertarians wanted him to. He paved the way to inject libertarian republicans into local party positions and help Rand get a leg up which Rand has been massively improving on in his own way. I know the way that doctrinaire ancaps think of Rand considering he threads the needle on certain issues when his dad would never mince words. Ron has stated that he and Rand are about 99% in agreement on the issues, that's your cue. As I've documented here, Rand has been trying to expand his base to include minorities and much of the establishment block. That is how he hustles libertarianism into the mainstream by coalition building - something his dad tried but couldn't achieve because he was old school in how he proselytized the liberty message. Rand is sharpening and repackaging the libertarian message to the point where the media can't demagogue him as much and send payback to all those that stepped on his dad's toes all those years. He's fulfilling the Paul libertarian legacy.
