I read it more as him championing Reagan's Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger doctrine for war following Vietnam than Reagan's foreign policy. Regardless, a breath of fresh air in contrast to the notoriously war-hawkish GOP.

I think he was probably pandering to the base who believes that Reagan was a deity. Let's not forget that only a month ago, Paul was slamming Reagan for being a worse President on fiscal issues than Carter.

Where the frick are you getting that from?

Rand didn't mention fiscal issues. That's not what he is talking about. He can't praise certain Reagan views and attack different ones?
