Rather interesting position for Rand Paul to take. And surprising. I like the statement at the end - don't try to put him in a box. A couple of comments; Hmm, I saw it as a position of convenience rather than principle. His principles would lead him to a fairly strongly based isolationism; but any serious candidate for the presidency in 2016 is going to have to have some strong statements on ISIS. Rand Paul is finessing that issue by arguing it's a congressional issue, but then turning around and saying he would support serious intervention. Fairly clever. But I don't think it's any more than that. In fact, I find his political agility a bit surprising.
