More quotes by Rand Paul
You need to have people within your own party that have the wherewithal to stand up to you.
Rand Paul
I've had an interest in politics since I was a little kid.
Rand Paul
I think Republicans will not win again in my lifetime ... unless they become a new GOP, a new Republican Party. And it has to be a transformation. Not a little tweaking at the edges.
Rand Paul
It's curious that only in Washington can you spend $2 billion and claim that you're saving money.
Rand Paul
Do you hate poor people or do you just hate poor people with jobs?
Rand Paul
The only way to save Social Security is to raise the retirement age.
Rand Paul
Big and oppressive government has long been the enemy of freedom, something black Americans know all too well.
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 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
I'm a Reagan conservative. Reagan did negotiate with the Soviets. But you have to negotiate from a position of strength.
Rand Paul
The president began this program by executive order. He should immediately end it by executive order. For over a year now, he has said the program is illegal, and yet he does nothing.
Rand Paul
I think that there is a bipartisan consensus that's incorrect that we should have the whole world be in NATO. For example, if we had Ukraine and Georgia in NATO - and this is something McCain and the other neocons have advocated for - we would be at war now because Russia has invaded both of them.
Rand Paul
People don't like to vote against something that's so incredibly popular.
Rand Paul
I think we've made the collection haystack so big, no one's ever getting through the haystack to find the needle. What we really need to do is isolate the haystack into a group of suspicious people and spend enormous resources looking at suspicious people, people who we have probable cause.
Rand Paul
I’ve never argued against any technology being used when you have an imminent threat, an active crime going on. If someone comes out of a liquor store with a weapon and fifty dollars in cash, I don’t care if a drone kills him or a policeman kills him.
Rand Paul
When the government tries to invade the church to enforce its own opinion on [gay] marriage, that's when it's time to resist.
Rand Paul
We shouldn't be fearful of freedom, we shouldn't be fearful of individual liberty.
Rand Paul
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.
Rand Paul
There are still people - the majority on the stage, they want to topple [Bashar] Assad. And then there will be chaos, and I think ISIS will then be in charge of Syria.
Rand Paul
Well, there’s 10 - there’s 10 different - there’s 10 different titles, you know, to the Civil Rights Act, and nine out of 10 deal with public institutions. And I’m absolutely in favor of one deals with private institutions, and had I been around, I would have tried to modify that.
