Senator Rand Paul: Not even ready for Late Night

Those of us concerned about a serious presidential run by Senator and extreme libertarian Rand Paul (GOP, KY) needn't worry any more. Rand, who last year told MSNBC host Rachel Maddow he wouldn't have voted for 1960's civil rights legislation which gave blacks full citizenship because doing so was none of Uncle Sam's darn business, continues to self destruct before his 2016 Prez campaign gets started. 
 
We just learned that Paul's social media advisor, Jack Hunter, who co-wrote a 2011 book with Paul, used to be a neo-confederate activist. For 13 years just ending last year he was a South Carolina shock jock known as "Southern Avenger". Among Hunter's shenanigans during and before his radio days: he expressed support for Honest Abe's assassination, wore a mask sporting a Confederate Flag, and chaired the League of the South, which advocated "the secession and independence of the Southern States from this forced union and formation of a Southern Republic". 
 
Back in 2009, Paul's Senate campaign spokesman was forced out over a racist comment and lynching image his friend posted on his MySpace wall during Martin Luther King weekend. The spokesman left this up for almost two years. 
 
Paul may still think he's ready for Prime Time when we normal folks understand he ain't even ready for Late Night.
