Rand Paul Drops Out – Now See Who His Major Donor Supports Rand Paul might have been doomed from the start, perhaps he carries the curse his father was under every time he ran for President. That’s why on Wednesday the third of February Paul announced to supporters and the world he would be withdrawing from the race for the White House. Though Paul is out of the race he has declined to endorse another candidate at this point. However, that hasn’t stopped one of his major donors from endorsing one of the other candidates. Tech entrepreneur Scott Banister has long been an ally to the liberty movement. The angel investor, IronPort founder, and PayPal board member donated $3 million to a Rand Paul supporting Super PAC, and has been a vocal supporter of the libertarian Republican. Now that Rand Paul is out of the presidential race, Banister has thrown his support behind Ted Cruz. Cruz is a self-described constitutional conservative who earned the endorsements of both Rand and Ron Paul in his 2012 Texas Senate race. Screen Shot 2016-02-03 at 6.29.46 PM Cruz’s relationship with the Pauls soured somewhat during the campaign, particularly as he employed more hawkish undertones on foreign policy, and didn’t show up for Rand Paul’s recent Audit the Fed vote in the Senate. To many Paul supporters however, Cruz seems like a logical second choice despite his imperfections. At the very least, he has stood against the U.S. pursuing regime change abroad, and demonstrated some degree of willingness to reform the NSA. The reactions are mixed on this. As Rare noted many voters who lean more Libertarian are offput by Cruz’s hawkishness. They’re afraid his rhetoric regarding what to do in the middle east could very well incite World War III. On the other hand other voters see Cruz as a solid conservative with strong, constitutionally minded values that pick up where Paul left off. Though it remains to be seen where Paul’s support will end up you can be sure of one thing. Cruz certainly will enjoy the support of Bannister. What’s your take on all of this? Fire away below in the comments. Poster Comment: Has Cruz made the pilgrimage to Israel?

He has and is an izzie-firster all the way.
“The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.” ~ H. L. Mencken
Teddy Cruz... owned by Goldman Sachs. That doesn't surprise me in the least. ;) "When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one." Edmund Burke
Prolly so, but he really doesn't have to, he's such ubiquitous stuffed shirt for Jue power. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUtUyPS1etQ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ta3yN2Yzduo But you know, these pundits have GOT to stop calling Rand Libertarian. He's NOTHING, absolutely NOTHING. Wish the intolerable little worm would just wiggle into back into his hole, never to be seen again. We need a new buzzterm for when the System keeps trying to dignify a worthless POS like him with some august-sounding Latin-revived buzzname -- it's like how the chatttering classes ALWAYS call MLK "Dr. Martin Luther King Junior" (sometimes correcting themselves if they leave out a piece) and Elvis' sleazy swami Andreas van Kijk "COLONEL Tom Parker." All the world's a stage, and the media cartel raises up insufferable nobodies as our gods this way. --------------------------------------------------------- NN Sequitur (Poor misguided beasts if it's blafricans!) --------------------------------------------------------
When the news hit that MLK, Jr. had been killed, they cancelled the leaves for all the guards at the County Jail since most of the population was black. One guard, because he had a good job, was able to get a mortgage on a 4-flat. He lived on the 2nd floor. When he opened the door to go to work, there was a black guy standing there. He was ready to light a Molotov Cocktail. The guard said, "What you think you're doing?" The black guy said, I'll show whitey. I'm gonna burn down this building." The guard pulled his pistol and killed the black guy right where he was standing. I knew a white guard at the jail and he told me this story. He said he asked the black guard, "How are you going to explain this?" The black guard said, "When they come along and pick him up, it's just another dead nigger." The good blacks call the bad blacks niggers, too. ROTFLMAO! "When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one." Edmund Burke
That is an all-time priceless one. Don't be afraid to repeat 'em, please!! --------------------------------------------------------- NN Sequitur --------------------------------------------------------
