GOODBY DEAR RAND PAUL 5/9/2015
I received your pathetic mailing recently the, “REPUBLICAN RENEWAL RESPONSE FORM”. The mailing announces that the best chance to defeat Hillary Clinton is to stand strongly for liberty. It states further that you seem to stand boldly for liberty so you must be the best choice.
It is so pathetic that so many words are said without saying anything, like boldly standing for liberty, what does it mean? The mailing further states that you want to lower taxes. I guess that means the 1% will have more money to build factories in China. You simply forget and ignore the distribution of wealth in America. Why have you not looked at the statistics of financial wealth distribution? The statistics for 2010 show that the 1% own 42% of the financial wealth and that the bottom 80% of Americans own only a piddling 5%. How can anyone with any kind of a brain ignore these insane numbers and talk about reducing taxes? There is something wrong in America.
Next you want to stop Common Core because it allows the Federal Government to set equal standards for all the schools in America. You believe it is better to have certain schools teach creationism, Christian Science, and slip in any other fantasy or religious delusion in their schools.
Protecting Civil Liberties in the name of security you point out Benjamin Franklin and try to apply his standard to today’s problems. How can you be so wrong in stating that? Today we have pissed off over one billion Muslim people with our neo-con, orchestrated, lied in, needless wars, and now have created ISSIS by our interventions. We have made ourselves tons of enemies by not reigning in Israel’s expansions and by not forcing a peace on Israel and the Palestinians. The threat to us is from all the people we have angered, killed, and bombed and their ability to use a suitcase nuclear bomb, bio and chemical weapon attacks, and whatever else they can think off. Should we believe that we can keep killing people using drones with impunity, all over the world? Benjamin Franklin today would have been so horrified at our lack of diplomacy in the Middle East and our 1984 Orwellian pursuit of a constant war for peace that Benjamin would not say anything to us, except walk away from us.
Your letter further states, Repeal “Obama Care”, this $2.6 Trillion disaster stands to wreck our economy. I would like to remind you that a lot of people like it, poor people have signed up for it and people with pre-existing conditions also like it. You offer nothing to replace it but you spit on it, and want to repeal it, not very smart. America has wasted $4 trillion on the Iraq war and $2 billion per week for 12 years in Afghanistan and all for nothing, except that we have created ISSIS by our wars there, all this needless war waste and not a peep from you about this waste wrecking our economy.
Audit the Fed., a statement you make all the time is interesting to me because it shows your lack of understanding of how things work in our world. We are in debt, we are living beyond our means, we have to keep printing money to pay for all of our obligations, and stupid needless wars, and this must never stop because if it was exposed, this insanity, our whole financial house of cards would fall down. Our government hopes that through the growth of GDP and the manipulations of the money supply we can somehow stumble forward. The whole world economy is following the same formula and all are hoping for either a soft landing, inflation to steal real wealth, or some other miracle, no one wants to put the stop on the manipulating, gambling, thieving banks and cause a reckoning which would collapse the world financial system. Your call to expose this is not a very good idea.
Your last point on life, liberty and property should be better explained. The point on life to protect the unborn is an outright pandering to the evangelicals to make all abortion illegal. You miss this point completely when you want the government to deny a woman to have a choice about her body, yet you call for less government in our lives, huh? You will pick up some evangelicals on this pandering move, but you will loose a lot more women’s votes. The next point, you seem to think that the EPA is a negative force, yet, we all know that EPA has done a lot of good and without them the 1% would have polluted all of our lakes and rivers. EPA and the so called green goons did not dump mercury and other chemicals into our Great Lakes, and rivers and poison our water and fish. You can also see the orange, yellow air in the cities in China and I believe everyone in China would like to borrow our EPA.
You present yourself as some sort of a champion of the people, but you do not mention that the millionaires are running for the office of president and billionaires are buying that office for them, and that surely is a joke on the American people. You also mention nothing about the needless wars in the Middle East that cost us trillions of dollars plus American lives, yet you are concerned about the dollars spent on “Obama Care”.

P.S. Google me up and read my book “The Repair Manual for Uncle Sam and America”. The ideas in the book might help you present some benefits for the American people. You should also fire your impotent marketing team and step away from the gaggle of Republican candidate clowns.
