Obama has been a typical Democratic President. Forgettable for the most part. I'll take that any day over another shit like Shrub or Reagan. They actively destroy our country which is a hell of a lot worse than not helping it enough...which is what Obama is guilty of.
Paul wants to destroy our country. Literally. He wants us to become a loosely connected mob of independent fiefdoms who bicker and struggle with each other while oppressing the shit out of their citizens in order to let "real people" (corporations, rich, well connected, and others that meet his criteria for "worthwhile"
take total control.
It's the Ayn Rand vision of heaven. The average person shuts the hell up and lets the "do'ers" make the decisions because they earned it by having more money than you. And screw that helping your fellow man and making the country as a whole a better place. The only role government should serve in his mind is to keep out of the damn way and let the "do'ers" do their thing.
No minimum wage
No work place safety rules
No Social Security
No health care for kids
No health care for injured veterans
No environmental regulations
No food safety regulations
No limits on religious intrusion into government
No protection for the weak from the powerful
Let everyone take care of themselves and screw the ones that cant, even if they are children or disabled or black or gay or female or poor or uneducated or whatever. It's not our problem, corporations will solve all those problems if we just let them.
You would have to be a complete idiot to support that kind of philosophy. But then....this is the US so I suspect the man will get a lot of support.
I don't think that most of the people who support the nut bag at this time have really thought about what his philosophy would mean if it was enacted. Once they do.....his numbers will drop back to nut bag status where they belong.
