He might make public statements that suggest that he's not in line with the Republican party on foreign policy, but his voting record suggests differently. Even if Rand Paul voted the way he talked, being more moderate on foreign policy doesn't excuse the fact that he is very conservative on many other issues, as other posters have mentioned. Why don't Republicans like Hillary Clinton because of her positions on foreign policy?

Angus King, Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders are all more or at least as hawkish as Paul, but who cares? Republican = SUCKS

You, Sir, are much too fond of these:

I know it's the "cool" side of the current foreign policy debate - especially among the demographic that primarily posts on Atlas - to not support "America being the world's police," but Paul is just wrong.  Obama has handled the Middle East affairs fairly well, and Clinton and multiple Republicans would handle it much more realistically and responsibly than Rand Paul.
