Top 7 Reasons Why Rand Paul Will Be the GOP Nominee

Paul is Still a Favorite to Win the Republican Nomination

by Josh Guckert

As the 2016 Presidential campaign continues into its unofficial “introductory” phase, many are overly anxious to write off the chances of Senator Rand Paul.

However, with only one debate having been completed and not a single vote yet cast, perhaps some are misguided in their analyses. Here are the top 7 reasons why Rand Paul will be the Republican nominee in 2016:

1. A lone voice of reason among a sea of group-think.

Among the 17 contenders for the Republican nomination, only Paul seems to be willing to consistently stray from the party-line on some very important issues which are being hotly debated within the GOP electorate, including the topics of NSA spying, foreign interventionism and the War on Drugs.

No matter how prevalent these more libertarian stances may actually be in more “conservative” circles, Paul remains the standard-bearer for quite a few issues which have otherwise been neglected by the Republican candidates. Once more coherent coalitions form based upon these topics, Paul will be able to distinguish himself as a voice rather than an echo.
