More quotes by Rand Paul
What gets lost is that the Republican Party has always been the party of civil rights and voting rights.
Rand Paul
You can see why there are more people wanting to come from economically-distressed areas, and they can't all come to America. So it gets into the valid, legitimate debate over immigration as to how do we choose. Do we have a diversity lottery and take people from everywhere, do we base it more on merit?
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
I'm an internationalist. I want to help others, not just kill terrorists.
Rand Paul
The more we can have peaceful trade both with Russia, with China, and with others, you know, there's a self interest in this for everyone.
Rand Paul
Do we fear terrorism so much that we throw out our Constitution, and are we unwilling and afraid to debate our Constitution?
Rand Paul
You wonder why your government's completely broken? We lurch from deadline to deadline, and it's on purpose really. We do deadline to deadline because ... 'we've got to go. It's spring break, we're going to be late for spring break, and we've got to go, so we've got to finish this up before we go.'
Rand Paul
2007 was a long time ago, and events do change over long periods of time.
Rand Paul
To understand how Republicans lost the African American vote, we must first understand how we won the African American vote.
Rand Paul
Toppling secular dictators in the Middle East has only led to chaos and the rise of radical Islam.
Rand Paul
I have allowed the president to pick his political appointees…But I will not sit quietly and let him shred the Constitution.
Rand Paul
The Bill of Rights existed long before President Obama was elected, and as long as I’m a U.S. Senator, I will fight to protect the basic rights and liberties that belong to all of us as American citizens.
Rand Paul
We shouldn't be fearful of freedom, we shouldn't be fearful of individual liberty.
Rand Paul
There is nothing conservative about bailing out Wall Street. Likewise, there is nothing progressive about billion dollar loans to millionaires to build solar panels.
Rand Paul
These attacks prove one thing for certain: the liberal establishment is desperate to keep leaders like me out of office, and we are sure to hear more wild, dishonest smears during this campaign.
Rand Paul
Congress shall pass no law that exempts themselves!
Rand Paul
I worry that the Senate is working to consider a series of little-noticed provisions in comprehensive immigration reform that may provide a pathway to a national ID card for all individuals present in the United States - citizens and noncitizens.
Rand Paul
If I have a weakness, it's that I try to live by the rules. I try to live by the rules, no matter what they are, and I was brought up that way as a kid. Play by the rules.
Rand Paul
I don't like the idea of telling private business owners. I abhor racism. I think it's a bad business decision to ever exclude anybody from your restaurant. But at the same time I do believe in private ownership. I think there should be absolutely no discrimination in anything that gets public funding.
Rand Paul
I also think regime change in Syria is a bad idea. And that's an ongoing question. It's one of the things I like about Donald Trump, one of the reasons I endorsed him is he thinks regime change is a mistake. But John Bolton thinks completely the opposite. They are diametric opposites.
