I agree fully. Ryan has loved Rand for his entire adult life, then he tried to distance himself to avoid trouble within the party once he was the VP nominee. It is that kind of phony behavior that makes politicians look like fools who will do and say anything to earn the job. It is because of these types of positions that the Republicans are down in the polls behind a terrible president in Obama. Nobody believes anybody because nobody in politics stands for anything. They wanted Ryan because of his history with Rand. No time to be a Judas.
So many religious, have embraced Ayn Rand in recent years -- the groundswell is on, and will not be halted !!
