Written by As I hear it, Rand Paul has announced his candidacy for President of the United States. Not only that, but he’s in New Hampshire right now. I could get in the car and go see him if I wanted to, but I think I would rather watch Game of Thrones reruns in preparation for Sunday’s 5th season premier. There are other things I would rather do than go see Rand Paul. Like laundry, cleaning my bathroom, reading the inane ramblings of my political enemies, or playing time waster flash games online.
Any of those things would be infinitely more productive, than anything pertaining to Rand Paul. In fact, this article is a complete waste of my time, but it’s still better than lifting a finger to support, or oppose, Rand Paul.
This is not some hard line anarchist opposition to voting, I was just in Concord testifying before the legislature yesterday. This isn’t even my frustration with the utter hopelessness of the federal government in general, I think it would be awesome if there were a presidential candidate worth getting behind. The unfortunate reality is, no such candidate exists, and the next year and change of many libertarians’ lives are going to be completely wasted, in furtherance of an ideologically incoherent pursuit of political power, that will not come to fruition.
