Sorry, but there's nothing there I can work with. AFAIK, Reagan was not a fan of Rand. (I know she had issues with him.) Paul has libertarian leanings wrt business and international affairs but either is socially conservative or has to pay homage to it as a Republican. Going to school off an atheist doesn't mesh well with the R platform and opposing choice doesn't mess well with Objectivism. Rand would not have approved of him any more than Reagan. There's a clear connection between Greenspan and Rand. They were tight personally as well as philosophically so that relationship may have factored into his thinking as an economist but it's hard to tease it out. At least I'm unable to do so. In any event, he's an economist, not a politician, so outside the scope of our discussion. As for evaluating macro economic policy, that's way beyond my skill set.
