Looks like Rand Paul is ready for his close-up!

FROM REASONTV
“I think Republicans could only win in general if they become more live and let live,” Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) tells Reason TV at Lincoln Labs’ Reboot Conference, which was held July 18-20 in San Francisco.
Paul sat down with Nick Gillespie to talk about the future of the GOP, the need to reach the 80-million-strong Millennial Generation, why having a strong national defense doesn’t mean constant military interventions, and what Washington, D.C. can learn from the entrepreneurial culture of Silicon Valley.
When asked whether he would vote to end the taxpayer-funded Export-Import Bank, which helps foreign companies buy U.S. products, is widely seen as a leading example of corporate welfare, and is coming up for a vote in September, Paul replied:
Absolutely. If I’m a Republican and I’m going out and saying, “We have limited resources and we can’t have everyone on food stamps,” by golly I need to be a Republican who says “we’re not giving one penny of corporate welfare.”
