Rand Paul talks about his name and Ayn Rand

May 20th, 2009 12:26 am  |  by Marc Gallagher  |  Published in Ayn Rand, Liberty, Philosophy, Politics, Ron Paul, rand paul  |  8 Responses

Rand Paul has put up a new video at RandPaul2010.com dispelling all the myths regarding his first name. He also discusses being a fan of Ayn Rand and a few of his favorite books.

I think it’s a great idea for Rand to release videos like these. In doing so he becomes more than just Ron Paul’s son. We get to know him as an individual rather than through his father. Hopefully these “get to know me” style videos continue.

Rand Paul is scheduled to be on the Brian and The Judge show on Fox News Radio during the 9am (Eastern) hour. He is also scheduled to be on with the Judge on Freedom Watch this afternoon at 2pm with several other freedom loving guests.

    Murray Rothbard was not a close associate of Rand's. The met only about six times in total. Unfortunately Murray exaggerated his association with Rand well beyond the facts.

    CLS is right, Rothbard was never a close associate of Ayn Rand. And do not believe the spin her enemies (Rothbard being one) put on things. BTW, this is the same Murray Rothbard who allied with the Marxists in the 60s, and who attended the Socialist Scholars Conference at which he called the American flag "a bloody rag" (source, Alice Widener article in Barrons). His nutty "anarcho-capitalism" speaks for itself.

    Rothbard is someone I was very privileged NOT to know. And I did know Ayn Rand quite well.
