The Polls show Rand Paul is leading

From Rand Paul 2016:

I am taking a quick break from the road in Texas to give you some breaking news on recent critical polling and to update you on our VERY successful trip to Iowa.

You won't hear this story anywhere else. The media wants to write this story differently.

So I am coming straight to you!

There are less than 100 days until the Iowa Caucuses. Can you believe that?

It is almost time for people to vote and show everyone that pollsters and the media got the story wrong all summer.

Our campaign is starting to feel the momentum on the ground. Recently, I toured several colleges and saw overflow crowds of young people who are invigorated to show up at the Iowa Caucuses.

They want to cut up the Obama credit card that is mortgaging their future and put forward pro-growth policies that will give them the jobs and opportunities they need to succeed.

They have liberal friends who are supporting Bernie Sanders and can't believe that an avowed socialist is near the top of the Democrat contest. They recognize that President Bernie Sanders would make President Barack Obama look like a fiscal conservative.

They know that in the real world, socialism fails and freedom works. The answer to fix Obama's failed policies is not to dive farther left off the cliff into socialism. The answer is to support a candidate who will hold the Constitution in one hand and the Bill of Rights in another.

And the momentum that we are feeling on the ground in Iowa is starting to show up in the polls, in the early states and nationally.

We are gaining ground in Iowa and, in fact, passed Jeb Bush and Carly Fiorina.

We are gaining ground nationally according to CNN and Monmouth polls.

The media wants you to believe that the race is over. They want you to believe that Donald Trump is already the nominee. Nothing could be further from the truth. At this time in 2008 Rudy Giuliani was leading. At this time in 2012 Herman Cain was leading.

Now is our chance for a comeback to capitalize on this momentum and show that liberty is alive and well in America.

I am convinced our campaign has momentum.

I know I have the support of the next generation.

Now I am asking you to step up and help us by making a contribution of whatever you can afford to defend liberty across this great country.

With your help, we will capitalize on our momentum and ultimately win the nomination.

Sincerely,

Rand Paul

PS: Thank you so much for your support. There are less than 100 days left until Iowa and this is our opportunity to surge.

The media is blacking out the Rand Paul campaign. I believe the establishment is scared. They've got Ted Cruz to worry about. Cruz is another fine candidate who is just as Libertarian and he has done a lot of good for the country. The establishment candidates,Jeb Bush and Chris Christie are struggling for approval points. I would love it if Christie dropped out of the race. I'm sure a lot of people would,especially those who hate the drug war and don't want to see it revamped,this time only meaner.
