Rand Paul to launch 2016 bid with rallies in Kentucky, early primary states

Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky will announce his official Republican presidential nomination bid in April at sites that highlight youth, national defense and his keep government out off my back philosophy.

He will start his five Stand with Rand announcement rallies in his home state then he and his top campaign aides will fly in a chartered aircraft, with no press aboard, to the only four states that are scheduled to hold their presidential preference nomination contests in February.

The grand kickoff will come at noon on Tuesday, April 7 in the grand ballroom of the Galt House Hotel in Louisville. Another noon speech is on tap the next day, this time in a historic building in Milford, New Hampshire. It exudes plenty of limited-government symbolism, from its setting in a small New England town about 45 minutes drive-time from Manchester to its direct democracy tradition as a town hall.

From there Mr. Paul flies to the Charleston suburb of Mt. Pleasant to orate on Thursday, April 9 aboard the U.S.S. Yorktown in South Carolina. Here Mr. Pauls campaign aides expect the military-defense symbolism to be as big as the Essex-class World War II aircraft carrier.

The next day he will be in Iowa City, at the University of Iowa Student Union for yet another address but this time to, yes, students the youth vote he has been cultivating for nearly three years with appearances on college campuses, including historically African-American venues.

His advance team chose this site over Iowa State University in Ames because of availability at the time.

Mr. Paul winds up his hat-in-the-ring tour by hoping to throw a seven in Las Vegas on Saturday, April 11.

His aides were still weighing the relative merits of several available several sites in Nevadas gambling-entertainment capital.

Mr. Pauls wife, Kelly, will be with him at the Louisville opener and may join him at other stops on the five-day, five-state launch.

Except for 2012, only candidates whove won either Iowa and New Hampshire plus South Carolina have gone on to win the GOP nomination in the modern era.

Rand Paul Flips Script, Says Gay Marriage Is Evidence Of 'Moral Crisis' In America

Politics By Ethan Brown, Mon, March 30, 2015

U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-Kentucky) is making headlines over his comments during his appearance at the Capitol Hill Club on Mar. 26, in which he stated that there is a moral crisis that allows people to think there would be some other sort of marriage.

Paul was speaking to a group of pastors and religious media personalities, including Jerry Johnson, the chief executive of National Religious Broadcasters.

In his comments, Paul referenced the First Amendment in his reasoning saying, The First Amendment says keep government out of religion. It doesnt say keep religion out of government.

We open the Senate every day with a prayer, he continued. You have prayer in government.

Pauls comments come shortly after the public outcry over the new Indiana law that some say discriminates against gay citizens. Theres also much speculation that Paul will announce his candidacy for president on April 7, becoming the second Republican to make a run for the White House after Ted Cruz.

The Washington Post reports that the Kentucky senator seemed to have changed his views on gay-marriage in the last few months.

In an interview with CNN in October, Paul said he believes in old-fashioned marriage, but he said that the government shouldnt be involved and that the Republican Party can have people on both sides of the issue, wrote the Post.

Much like his father Ron, the former Texas congressman and 2012 presidential candidate, Rand Paul has typically held views closer to a libertarian perspective than of the two major political parties. However, he has been recruiting more conservative Republicans lately, perhaps in an effort to secure more votes to win the Republican primary for president.

One of Pauls more interesting comments on the topic came in March 2013 when he was asked about moderate voters and the Republican Partys position on gay marriage.
