Rand Paul: 'I am not opposed to birth control'

updated 8:53 PM EDT, Tue September 30, 2014

STORY HIGHLIGHTS

Charleston, South Carolina (CNN) -- Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul said he is not opposed to Plan B, the emergency contraception commonly known as the morning-after pill.

Paul, a likely Republican presidential candidate, sponsored an anti-abortion bill in 2013 that defines life as beginning at fertilization. Democrats say the so-called "Personhood" measure would outlaw Plan B and other emergency contraceptives.

Paul was asked about the matter during an appearance at the College of Charleston, one stop on a day-long college tour of South Carolina.

"If life starts at conception, should medicine that prevents conception like Plan B be legal?," a woman asked him during a question-and-answer session here.

Paul at first gave a terse answer: "I am not opposed to birth control," he said.

After a pause, Paul elaborated. "That's basically what Plan B is," he said. "Plan B is taking two birth control pills in the morning and two in the evening, and I am not opposed to that."

A number of prominent social conservatives have condemned the morning-after pill as on-demand abortion drugs, sometimes confusing the contraceptive with RU-486, which can be used to induce abortion.

Rand Paul talks electronic snooping, tattoos at College of Charleston stop

U.S. Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky looked more like an Apple executive than a potential GOP candidate for president during his stump appearance at the College of Charleston.

He wore cowboy boots, jeans and a tie but no jacket. He said the Republican Party has been way off in its methods for trying to grow its ranks and should instead diversify by welcoming more people of color - and even men who wear their hair in ponytails or have pierced ears. Also, anybody inked with tattoos.

"You need to look like the rest of America," he said.

In an address designed to appeal to South Carolina's youth vote, Paul spoke for nearly an hour Tuesday about where the world is heading and how their generation, more than any previous one, will face the potential dangers of electronic overreach.

"When you talk to young people, their whole life revolves around their phone and I think they instinctively know that the government shouldn't be looking at their stuff without the permission of a judge," he said.

He also said the attitude that "if you're not doing anything wrong then you shouldn't fear the government" could too easily become the basis of society accepting privacy intrusion as a future norm.

"That's a little bit of a lower standard than 'innocent until proven guilty,'" he told more than 200 students on the campus on protecting their data.

Paul's appearance was part of an increased emphasis on attracting younger voters as he sets up a potential run for the White House in 2016. The youth vote is something he acknowledged that Republicans have historically failed at cultivating.

"When you look at President Obama's victory, he won the youth vote 3-to-1, and he increased the youth vote," Paul said. He added "if you get the youth vote, you've got quite a bit" of the electorate.
