More quotes by Rand Paul
The callous use of general warrants and the disregard for the Bill of Rights must end. Forcing us to choose between our rights and our safety is a false choice and we are better than that as a nation and as a people.
Rand Paul
Of strong importance to me is the defense of minority rights, not just racial minorities, but ideological and religious minorities.
Rand Paul
The key to winning any general election in the USA is to excite your base and then expand your base - get independent voters and voters who haven't been voting for your party to come to your party.
Rand Paul
We still need to secure our southern border. The other thing I would say is we need to secure who visits us in the country.
Rand Paul
I think when people voted for Donald Trump, they realized he owned a lot of stuff with his name on it. I think the concern over conflict of interest seems to be higher in the media than the public. People saying, oh, he has to sell all of his stuff.
Rand Paul
I think it's a real debate how big NATO should be and whether or not it's more provocative than good. Whenever there's a war fought, our soldiers fight it and our dollars pay for it. And, really, our decisions need to be about our national security.
Rand Paul
I don't think we're doing an adequate vetting process of those who are coming to our country.
Rand Paul
If you're white and you're rich in the USA, if you get busted for drugs, you get a good attorney, and you in all likelihood serve no time. But if you're poor, black, Hispanic, or poor and white for that matter, you can get put in jail.
Rand Paul
I think it's a mistake to downgrade and say surveillance is no big deal. It is a huge deal that we are collecting millions of Americans phone calls and that someone can go to a keyboard and put your name in and search it without a warrant.
Rand Paul
We must protect ourselves from jihadis without losing ourselves.
Rand Paul
I would have never released the sanctions [for Iran] before there was consistent evidence of compliance.
Rand Paul
I think those who have wanted regime [of Bashar Assad] change have made a mistake.
Rand Paul
A Tea Party tidal wave is coming.
Rand Paul
What is immoral for an individual to do, is immoral for a government to do
Rand Paul
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.
Rand Paul
For most of our history, no one dared to tell Americans, you don't build that.
Rand Paul
This is an ongoing threat from a variety of sources around the world. And actually I think it works both ways. I'm not privy to it, but I think all of the various country that have the ability are invading each other's computers all the time. But we have to protect our data. It's very important.
Rand Paul
I still say exactly what my original opinion is. Do you borrow money from China to send it to anyone? Out of your surplus, you can help your allies, and Israel is a great ally. And this is no particular animus of Israel, but what I will say, and I will say over and over again, we cannot give away money we don't have.
Rand Paul
The GOP of old has grown old and moss covered.

The Stamp Act was a direct tax imposed on the colonies by King George III. This act inevitably led to the American Revolution. Just as the Stamp Act did in 1765, Obamacare should act as a wake-up call. Chief Justice Roberts provides us with a similar call to action.
