Taking a Stand

Moving Beyond Partisan Politics to Unite America

By: Rand Paul

Narrated by: Brian Troxell

Senator Rand Paul, leading national politician and likely contender for the 2016 presidential bid, presents his vision for America.

In his four years since joining the Senate, Rand Paul has risen to the forefront of the national discussion. He's being called "the most interesting man in politics" by TIME magazine. When Senator Paul believes in an issue, he reaches across the aisle to collaborate with his colleagues. He's worked with Senator Kirsten Gillibrand on an antiwar bill, a financial assistance for childcare bill, and a protection for women in the military bill. He's also working with Senator Cory Booker to reform the nation's criminal justice system. He's received standing ovations from conservatives when he spoke at CPAC (Conservative Political Action Conference) and standing ovations from students when he spoke at University of California at Berkley, known to be a liberal institution.

Fantastic opportunity to get into Rand Paul's head

As Rand is not a typical candidate by any means, I wanted to better understand his background, driving forces, and aspirations. This book was excellent. I wish that Rand would have narrated more than the first chapter but understand that he has a few other things on his plate right now.

A great message and a way forward!

I was able to listen to the whole audio book in one day. It made great points and provided Rand's ideas and solutions to make our country prosperous again. I highly recommend this book.

Brilliant book

Rand is one of the most intelligent statesmen left in DC. Filled with great content and definitely one of the best political reads

Wow, Rand Paul leaves no stone unturned, fearless

What's the biggest problem with candidates or politicians today, ok that's a loaded question but I can pick one thing, fear. They fear truth and fear crossing the line with their party. Not Rand Paul. He will not disappoint in this book. He is open and lays out his ideas and philosophy.
Rand stands up to the establishment and tells you the new party he sees and projects to be coming alive today in the U.S.

Highly recommend for voter ages and anyone not looking for status quo

taking a stand

I love the honesty and genuineness of Rand's portrayal of the federal government today. I believe his solutions will work.

Absolutely AWESOME & Inspiring!!!

I challenge EVERYONE (whether you're; a Liberal or a Conservative, for or against, him as a Presidential candidate) to listen-to/read "Taking A Stand: Moving Beyond Partisan Politics to Unite America" by Dr. Rand Paul M.D., because it will blow your mind how much sense it all makes. And this will ring true for anyone with common sense, good will toward humanity, basic Americana ideals and/or any hope for our future.

***NOTE*** Try to, if at all possible; to objectively review/analyze the points made, while limiting your preconceived notions about Rand Paul, or his father Ron. Likely based on fear-mongering propaganda you've "heard" from; D.C. Establishment Politicians (who are either; scared of losing their 'Good Ole Boys' unrestricted & unchecked reign of absolute power, or are 110% compromised & controlled), and/or their MSM mouthpieces (I.e., CNN, FoxNews, MSNBC, etc..). To genuinely get inspired about Liberty, Freedom & the United States of America!!!

If Rand doesn't cast the American Net wide enough, no one can.

America can Win. Rand is very knowledgeable, classical and current. He understands the depth of domestic and foreign issues like no one else that has articulated to date.

I thought we needed an executive experience, like the hardened Scott Walker. I enjoyed Scott's recent book and was more convinced of his capability. However, Rand... wow! I've always watched and agreed on his stands, but he shows a depth of insight that I'm convinced he can beat not only the democrats but win this republican primary.

Continue to take your stand Rand, you stand for all of us and impel us to stand as well.

Great Listen! Love it!

It takes you briefly through his life, then straight to the talking points! Would recommend to anyone wanting to learn more about Rand other than what you have read online!

Listen to Senator Paul for yourself!

Where does Taking a Stand rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This is the clearest vision for America put forth by any politician I my lifetime.

What was the most compelling aspect of this narrative?

The most compelling aspect of this book is the consistent common sense approach toward running our country according to the Constitution. Equally compelling is the fact that following the Constitution will benefit both the poor and the rich, the majority and the minority, the citizen and those who want to be citizens.

What about Brian Troxell’s performance did you like?

Brian Troxell did an outstanding job. He read with passionate and conviction. I almost forgot that I wasn't listening to Senator Paul.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I listened to this book periodically over a period about a week.

Any additional comments?

Anyone with an open mind and an interest inthe future of our country, should not hesitate to give this book opportunity to show you what Senator Paul really thinks, and not what the pundits, or party bosses tell you he thinks.

Power resides with the people

The rise of the Libertarian in politics is notable because the underpinning is the idea that when people take responsibility for their own lives most will rise to the challenge and succeed. One of the benefits is it leaves more resources in the hands of those most capable of recognizing and responding to the needs in their family. Family is the sure foundation for every successful society. Leadership is required. Dr. Rand Paul is such a leader.
