How much liberty do with want to give up for a false sense of security?

I think my dad has helped me tremendously.

On the Gang of Eight bill, there was no provisions really for extra scrutiny or safety for refugees. At the time the bill came up, two Iraqi refugees came to my home town, Bowling Green, Kentucky. Their fingerprints were on a bomb from Iraq. They were in the database, but we didn't pick them up.

I'll do anything to try to prevent John Bolton from getting any position, because I think his world view is naive. He believes we're going to spread democracy. We're going to topple governments everywhere and they're going to elect Thomas Jefferson. That's not the way it works in the Middle East.

I've heard of many tragic cases of walking, talking normal children who wound up with profound mental disorders after vaccines.

If our freedom is taken, the American dream will wither and die.

Gun control is not part of a strategy to defeat radical Islam or take ISIL down. However it is a problem back here at home. A million people have been adjudicated a danger to themselves or to others at the state court level.

I think we need to treat everybody with dignity.

My belief has always been that national defense is the most important thing we do, but we shouldn't borrow to pay for it.
Rand Paul

I would pay to have those adjudications enrolled into the federal background system so we could detect people who are mentally ill before they buy a gun. That is a real problem.

The source of the problem is in Syria. Raqqa is the headquarters of ISIL, which is a lethal terrorist organization, now army. If you don't go after them over there, they're going to hit us over here, and there's no substitute for that in my view.
Rand Paul

ISIL is not the JV team. I cannot stress enough that there's a terrorist army in Syria and Iraq that wants to attack the homeland and we're not doing anything about it. So how do you defeat the ideology? Build up others? You reject Rand Paul.

I think that by arming the allies of ISIS, the Islamic rebels against [Bashar] Assad, that we created a safe space or made that space bigger for ISIS to grow.

What I can say is, is that if you do a poll, and one of the worldwide polling companies did this, and they asked people in 50 countries, Would you like to come to America, it's about 700 million would come next year. We would double our population.

We shouldn't have a program where we just say that we're going to take care of the world's refugees. Nobody in the Middle East is doing anything. Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait - all the Gulf nations are doing nothing.

I'm an internationalist. I want to help others, not just kill terrorists.

I think that most manufacturing and mining should be under the purview of state authorities.

If you force legislators to balance, at the end of the day, if it has to be balanced, then they step up and they become legislators and can find out where to cut.

When the government tries to invade the church to enforce its own opinion on [gay] marriage, that's when it's time to resist.

I really think that discrimination and racism is a horrible thing. And I don't want any form of it in our government, in our public sphere.
