Taking a Stand

Framed around his 2016 presidential ambitions, this book blends memoir with a policy manifesto for a more libertarian Republican Party. Paul lays out his positions on criminal-justice reform, privacy and surveillance, foreign restraint, and economic freedom, and argues the party must broaden its appeal beyond its base. Part campaign document, part statement of principle, it presents him as a bridge-builder willing to work across the aisle on issues where liberty and civil rights overlap.
