Do you really think a Paul presidency would have made a difference? The issue is equally under the purview of acts of Congress and the COurts
Look at his attempts to "restore" the 2nd amendment while in Congress:
Second Amendment Protection Act of 2007 - No Cosponsors
Second Amendment Protection Act of 2005 - No Cosponsors
Second Amendment Protection Act of 2003 - Four Cosponsors
Second Amendment Protection Act of 2001 - Three Cosponsors
Putting the legal question aside, there is no support in the Congress or the country for the removal of all reasonable gun control legislation.
And back to the legal issue, it would be shocking to see the USSC declare that individual rights under the 2nd Amendment are absolute and subject to NO government regulation or restriction.
