Rand Paul: "I Am Proud To Be A Republican"

When asked by CNN's Candy Crowley if he would ever consider leaving the Republican Party for the Democrats or a third party, Sen. Rand Paul replied, "No. I've always been a Republican, and I'm one of those people who actually is a real lover of the history of the Republican Party from the days of abolition through the days of civil rights. The Republican Party has a really rich history. In our state, I'm really proud of the fact that the ones who overturned Jim Crow in Kentucky were Republicans fighting against an entirely unified Democrat Party. So I am proud to be Republican. I can't imagine being anything else."
