Bigger picture Quote by Steve Kornacki
“Ideologically, there are no major differences between the two Pauls, and there are stylistic similarities too; like his dad, Rand hardly minds being the lone 'no' vote in a sea of 'yes' votes. But unlike his dad, Rand seems to pick his spots with at least one eye on the bigger picture of politics.”

![“Rand's [Paul] a libertarian. He has a view of the world that I don't share. He said that we shouldn't have any troops in Iraq. He agreed with Obama that was a disaster. When there was a chance to do something constructive about Syria with a no-fly zone, he said we don't need one.” quote by Barack Obama](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/727/barack-obama-17_chance_rand-s-paul-a-libertarian-he-has-a-view_1574872.jpg)
