/pol/, why did Rand fail?
Bump
He had good ideas but never got a chance to shine through the circus. The Trump, Jeb, Rubio, Cruz show pretty much crushed his chances because he wasn't about to stoop to Jerry Springer tactics with the rest of them in order to be heard.

Because he's a libertarian.
He is a charisma vacuum albeit an intelligent, independent man in a world full of idiots with no attention span that need government handouts. He never stood a fucking chance.
He got cocky and thought he'd have all the libertarian hype his son did
Because he attacked Trump and got his manlet ass handed to him

Rand is libertarian-ish at best. The only thing he strays from mainstream conservatism on is foreign policy and drugs.
He tried to cozy up to the establishment too much, which killed his credibility with liberty-minded people, and in the first debate, he tried to attack Trump. The stumping was so bad, he never had a chance of recovering. He'd have done better sticking with arguments against the police state. The biggest spark he got was the "get a warrant" exchange, but he never capitalized on it.
We need him in the senate anyway, so it works out.

because the media from day 1 has done their best at lying and deceiving the american people to not pick a candidate that doesnt suit the elites agenda.

Rand Paul 2020 to take on incumbent President Shillery, with 10 years in the senate, two senate campaigns and the experience from his first presidential run under his belt.
