My statement isn't about placing "Profit" over "Principle"
It's about understanding some fundamentals about politics, that a political body is not about the decisions of one single person. That in order for things to move forward, often times multiple groups' interests must be served--not just one ideal.

Have you been so severely conditioned to accept a special interest group objective over the foundation of the constitution?
Mr. Paul has 'consistently' placed his vote with what the constitution SPECIFICALLY authorizes the government to do, yet you criticize his positions because they fall outside the unconstitutionality of a party objective. what do you want out of a country, party, and candidate?
